File Description:

"02030049.a77" is the original data in NGDC format for I08S
"02030050.a77" is the original data in NGDC format for I09N

"I08S_I09S_bathy_gdc.txt" is 02030049.a77 reformatted to our standard gdc format
"I09N_bathy_gdc.txt" is 02030050.a77 reformatted to our standard format

"I08I09_bathydist.txt" is the decimated bathymetry file, projected
    onto straight lines between station positions, used for plotting
    the vertical sections.

"I08I09_sta_bdep.txt" is the station list, with corrected bottom
    depths for each station, based on the WHP format station summary files
    i08ssu.txt and i09nsu.txt.
