Description:

Abstract:

This dataset contains those marine bottom type/seabed classifications within the Wainae moku (traditional district) on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu. It was clipped from a data set that showed marine bottom type/seabed classifications within the vicinity of the main Hawaiian Islands and recorded on the nautical charts.

Purpose:

The purpose of this data set is to show the marine bottom type/seabed classifications within the Waianae moku on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu. It is part of a larger effort to provide the Waianae community, located on the western side of Oahu, ecological and cultural spatial data to assist in their land and resource management efforts.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

This data set was then clipped to the Waianae moku using ESRI ArcGIS from the state shapefile entitled BottomType, which showed marine bottom type/seabed classifications within the vicinity of the main Hawaiian Islands and recorded on the nautical charts.

The raster nautical charts were first reprojected from their original projection/datum to UTM Zone 4, Old Hawaiian using NOAA's Nautical Chart Reprojector v1.8.3. NOAA's ArcView ChartViewer extension was used to display the reprojected nautical charts in ArcView v3.2. Objects were then digitized off the individual nautical charts and merged into a single dataset/shapefile which covers the entire state. The dataset was then transformed to UTM Zone 4, NAD 83, to adhere to new project requirements, using the Hawaii Datums and Projections extension in ArcView. Completed December, 2002.
