NOAA/PIBHMC 40-m Bathymetry: American Samoa: Swains

Metadata Updated: October 7, 2023

A 40-m resolution gridded digital elevation model (DEM) for the bathymetry (ocean depth) surrounding Swains Island in American Samoa compiled from ship-borne multibeam sonar surveys. Almost complete bottom coverage was achieved in depths between 7 and 4800 m. Data collected by the Pacific Islands Benthic Habitat Mapping Center (PIBHMC) in support of NOAA's Coral Reef Conservation Program. Not to be used for navigational purposes. For a grayscale hillshade image layer of this dataset, see "as_pibhmc_swa_bathy40m_hillshade" in the distribution links listed in the metadata.
