Description:
These data depict the occurrence of submarine cables in and around U.S. navigable waters. The geographic extent of these data is greater than the “NASCA Submarine Cables” dataset. The purpose of these data products are to support coastal planning at the regional and national scale. These data are derived from 2010 NOAA Electronic Navigational Charts (ENCs) and 2009 NOAA Raster Navigational Charts (RNCs). Abandoned cables, or cables that have been removed may appear within this data set. Features defined as cables were compiled from the original sources, exclusive of those features noted as 'cable areas'.
