U. S. Shoreline mapping through aerial photography
 
Since the late 1930s, high-resolution, georeferenced aerial photography for defining the nation’s 95,000-mile shoreline has been a responsibility of the National Geodetic Survey, part of NOAA’s National Ocean Service (NOS).

Digital maps home The British Geological Survey (BGS) has begun the compilation and production of a vector attributed digital bathymetry of UK and adjacent European waters. The product is known as DigBath250. Its purpose is to provide a regional scale digital bathymetry as a primary dataset for geographic information systems (GIS), mapping and modelling of the seabed and sub-seabed, as well as tidal, current and water column modelling. It is available in standard GIS and CAD formats.
