Title
World Minor Islands, 1:10 million (2012)
Description
This polygon shapefile depicts minor islands that are 2 sq. km. or less in size. These data were derived from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s World Vector Shoreline data at 1:250,000 scale. Minor islands contain more relative detail than do the islands included with the main 10m ocean coastline data. Ocean bathymetry and ocean polygon are not punched out for minor islands. These data are represented at 1:10,000,000 scale. This layer is part of the Natural Earth Collection (v.2.0.0)., Natural Earth is a public domain map dataset available at 1:10, 1:50 and 1:110 million scales. Featuring tightly integrated vector and raster data, with Natural Earth you can make a variety of visually pleasing, well-crafted maps with cartography or GIS software.
