        Title: 
          Distance to Nearest Coastline: 0.01-Degree Grid: Land
    Description: 
      Abstract: 
        A global data set of land distances from the nearest coastline. NASA's 
        Ocean Biology Processing Group (OBPG) generated this data set using 
        the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) software package. Distances were 
        computed with GMT using its intermediate-resolution coastline and then 
        gridded globally at a spatial resolution of 0.04 degrees. Bilinear 
        interpolation was then applied to increase the spatial resolution to 
        0.01 degrees. There is an uncertainty of up to 1 km in the computed 
        distance at any given point.
      Purpose: 
        PacIOOS provides timely, reliable, and accurate ocean information to 
        support a safe, clean, productive ocean and resilient coastal zone in 
        the U.S. Pacific Islands region.
