2200	Gulf of Mexico bathymetric map ca. 1888. All deep soundings are from work of the Coast and Geodetic Survey Steamer BLAKE. This map is one of the first to have relatively high density sounding information. The Coast Survey had taken thousands of soundings which were culled down to produce this map.	United States, Gulf of Mexico
2201	Gulf of Mexico bathymetric map ca. 1888. All deep soundings are from work of the Coast and Geodetic Survey Steamer BLAKE. This map is one of the first to have relatively high density sounding information. The Coast Survey had taken thousands of soundings which were culled down to produce this map. This map is reproduced in Alexander Agassiz's "Three Cruises of the BLAKE."
2202	Perhaps the first three-dimensional image of a portion of the deep ocean. This map was produced from soundings primarily obtained by the C&GS Steamer BLAKE. An early rendition of this model is found in the C&GS Annual Report for 1884. This image is found in Alexander Agassiz's "Three Cruises of the BLAKE" published in 1888.
2203	The Mendocino Escarpment as compiled by Harold Murray of the Coast and Geodetic Survey and reproduced in the Bulletin of the Association of Field Engineers in 1938. This is the first hint at the nature of what later were termed fracture zones by H.W. Menard in the 1950's.
2204	Davidson Seamount, the first undersea feature to be officially termed a seamount by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names. This feature was surveyed by the C&GS in in 1933 and named in honor of the great Coast Survey West Coast pioneer George Davidson, 1825-1911.
2205	This excerpt from International Aspects of Oceanography, an NSF publication, was written by Wayland Vaughn of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in 1937 and describes the contribution of both echo-sounding and the navigation system termed Radio-Acoustic Ranging (RAR) to the mapping of the seafloor. RAR was developed by the C&GS and used to survey U.S.continental margins in the 1930's.
2206	Names and features overlay to map produced by International Hydrographic Organization as shown in image map00119. Note tracing of ridges on this 1939 overlay.	World Ocean
2207	The prototype 3-D image of the seafloor developed by Heezen and Tharp. Note the similarity to the Veatch and Smith map in image map00125. The Veatch and Smith map had been produced as a 3-D relief model by the Braund Reliefograph, a machine developed within the C&GS to produce relief models for WWII bombardiers and pilots.	Atlantic Ocean, Northwest
2208	Portion of the Pacific Ocean physiographic map published by H. W. Menard in his 1964 publication 'Marine Geology of the Pacific."	Pacific Ocean, Juan de Fuca Ridge area

2213	3-D view of West Rota Volcano.	Pacific Ocean, Northern Mariana Islands
2214	3-D view of the continental slope and Cape Fear Diapir on the continental slope off North Carolina. This map also shows a huge submarine slide with its headwall noted by the scarps on the left of the image.	Atlantic Ocean, North Carolina offshore
2215	Bathymetric map of Blake Ridge Diapir	Atlantic Ocean, South Carolina offshore
2216	Ocean trenches and volcanic arcs of the western Pacific Ocean from the Equator to 40 North	Pacific Ocean

2223	3-D view of Northwest Rota Volcano.	Pacific Ocean, Northern Mariana Islands
2224	3-D view of an un-named bank and the slopes of Lisianski Island in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands. The tops of these features are in shallow water or break the surface so no data is available giving the impression of hollow seamounts.
2225	3-D view of Northwest Eifuku Volcano.	Pacific Ocean, Northern Mariana Islands
2226	3-D view of Nikko Volcano.	Pacific Ocean, Northern Mariana Islands
2227	3-D view of Milne-Edwards ridge and seamount complex.

2246	3-D view of Bear Seamount. The concave appearance of the top is an artifact caused by the surveying ship "hovering" over the top of the seamount.
