Shorelines of the Eastern Chukchi Sea, Alaska coastal region (Point Barrow to Icy Cape) used in shoreline change analysis
This dataset includes shorelines from 65 years ranging from 1947 to 2012 for the north coast of Alaska between Point Barrow and Icy Cape. Shorelines were compiled from topographic survey sheets and Nautical Charts (T-sheet, Nautical Chart; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)), aer...
