A 40-m resolution gridded digital elevation model (DEM) compiled from ship-borne multibeam sonar surveys for the bathymetry (ocean depth) surrounding Baker Island in the Central Pacific Ocean, a U.S. Minor Outlying Island (USMOI). Almost complete bottom coverage was achieved in depths between 8 and 4700 m. Data collected by the Pacific Islands Benthic Habitat Mapping Center (PIBHMC) in support of NOAA's Coral Reef Conservation Program. Not to be used for navigational purposes. For a grayscale hillshade image layer of this dataset, see "hbi_pibhmc_bak_bathy40m_hillshade" in the distribution links listed in the metadata.
