Package gshhs-2.2.0-1

This package provides five different resolution versions of the GSHHS (Global Self-consistant Hierarchical High-resolution Shorelines) data base: high and full resolution. GSHHS combines the World Vector Shoreline and World Data Base II products into a single quality-checked hierarchical data base at 5 resolutions. Although these shorelines are distributed as part of the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT), they can be used stand-alone or with other applications that can read NetCDF files.
