Title: EarthBase Global Vector Base Map

Description:

Abstract:

Coastlines. This layer is a set of vector lines delineating global coastlinesat 1:1,000,000 scale. Coastline/shorelines have been portrayed for coastal islands but not inland islands. It is based on the National Imagery and Mapping Agency's VMAP Level 0 Vector Base Map product. It has been updated to show recent changes in the Balkans, Middle East and Asia (East Timor).

Purpose:

To provide users with a set of essential basemap features for use as a stand-alone map or putting other tabular or geospatial data in a larger spatial context.
