    • NOAA/PIBHMC 40-m Bathymetry: USMOI: Howland Island: Hillshade

    Metadata Updated: November 10, 2023

    A 40-m resolution gridded digital elevation model (DEM) grayscale hillshade compiled from ship-borne multibeam sonar surveys for the bathymetry (ocean depth) surrounding Howland Island in the Central Pacific Ocean, a U.S. Minor Outlying Island (USMOI). Almost complete bottom coverage was achieved in depths between 8 and 3800 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 the related dataset containing numeric bathymetry values for this image layer, see http://pacioos.org/metadata/pibhmc_bathy_40m_howland.html
