Description

The Marine Place Names were extracted from the NOAA Electronic Navigational Charts. This data set contains the geographic place names for features in the U.S territorial waters and outer continental shelf.

The Undersea Feature Places Names were extracted from the GEOnet Names Server (GNS) which provides access to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency's (NGA) and the U.S. Board on Geographic Names' (BGN) database of geographic feature names. The database is the official repository of foreign place-name decisions approved by the BGN. Geographic coordinates are approximate and are intended for general location.
