Coastline, Mackenzie Delta 1972 - 2007, Beaufort Sea, northern Canada
The following dataset represents coastlines as they existed along the Mackenzie Delta front, Richard island and Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula of the Beaufort Sea since 1972. These features provide an accurate representation of the land/water interface at a given time and position along the coastline. Aerial...
