US Ships & Wreck Obstructions

A shipwreck is the remains of a ship that has wrecked, which are found either beached on land or sunken to the bottom of a body of water.

Ship Wrecks & Obstructions data is an important information source for marine archaeologists, historians, fishermen, divers...

All data (ship wrecks and obstructions) is obtained from official sources NOAA.

NOAA’s National Ocean Service (NOS) implemented the Automated Wreck and
Obstruction Information System (AWOIS) to assist in planning hydrographic survey operations
and to catalog and store a substantial volume of reported wrecks and obstructions that are
considered navigational hazards within U.S. coastal waters.

Each AWOIS record has a series of attributes, which provides information about the wreck or obstruction.
