Modeling Biscayne Shipwrecks - Prepare Week

   This week, we gathered data on shipwrecks in the Biscayne National Park. This data will be used to generate a weighted overlay model. Data gathered includes a historical nautical chart from 1892, a current ENC, and bathymetric data for the Biscayne Bay. The historical chart was downloaded from the NOAA's Historical Map and Chart Collection and georeferenced to the location. The bathymetric data was downloaded from the NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center and symbolized to reflect depth in meters (shallow in red, deep in blue).
