City of Seattle Shoreline

A polygon feature class showing the City of Seattle, including Shoreline. It essentially follows the 8 foot contour line, except where the ortho offered further clarification. That 8 foot contour line matches closest to what NAVD88 shows as "mean high water" (see official definition below) at 7.97 feet. MEAN HIGH WATER (MHW): "A tidal datum. The average of all the high water heights observed over the National Tidal Datum Epoch. For stations with shorter series, simultaneous observational comparisons are made with a control tide station in order to derive the equivalent datum of the National Tidal Datum Epoch.
