The data contained in these files contain hydrographic and topographic data collected by the CHARTS system along
the west coast of Florida from Hurricane Pass to Big Hickory Pass, following Hurricane Wilma.
The data were collected and processed in geographic coordinates and ellipsoid heights. The positions are
relative to NAD83 in decimal degrees of longitude and latitude. The heights were converted from ellipsoid
to geoid heights (NAVD88) using the Geoid03 model with the results in meters. The date and time of each point are also
provided as YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS.SSSSSS.
