Distance to Nearest Coastline: 0.04-Degree Grid: Ocean

Other

A global data set of ocean 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.
