[Talk-us] NOAA Composite Shoreline

[Adam Schreiber]

Josh,

As the person that imported the NHD shoreline for most of the southern
east coast, I can tell you that I mainly tried to fix directional
errors and obvious missing features.  Correcting to imagery was beyond
the scope of the effort as that was back when we were just trying to
get something workable in and not throw errors on the coastline
checker.

Cheers,

Adam
