Purpose

The dataset was created as a means to display shaded relief information in the cartographic products for U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 97-470-K, Map Showing Geology, Oil and Gas Fields, and Geologic Provinces of the Caribbean Region. The image is a composite of two individual datsets: 30 arc-second topographic grid data (GTOPO30) and 1- minute bathymetric grid data (GEBCO). The image was considered suitable for this type of display at a scale of 1:2,670,000. It is provided for others who may wish to compile a mapping project in the region.
