The NOAA Coastal Services Center develops data in cooperation with local, state, and other federal agencies. These data are generated through both private sector contracts and in-house efforts. This section contains links to the Center's benthic data sets with accompanying FGDC-compliant metadata in a PKZIP format. The data sets were created from aerial photography, sediment profile imagery, sediment grabs, and the RoxAnn™ single-beam acoustic sensor.

For more information on these mapping technologies, visit the Mapping Information section. The data sets have been organized by geographic region.

• Northeast Region
• Southeast Region
• Northwest Region
• Gulf and Caribbean Region

To find other benthic data sets on-line, visit the Data Portal.  This page provides links to other sources of national, regional, and state-specific coastal benthic data.
