Note: NDBC's original submission of these data to NODC are under directory
      01-version/.  Then, NDBC corrected data from select stations and
      submitted the corrected data to NODC (see 1-email.txt and 2-email.txt for
      details).  The data files from the original submission plus the corrected
      data files are under directory 02-version/.

submission.

0002111_lonlat.txt - Buoy locations for these data.  Each row contains the
                     geographical position for a buoy (longitude in the left
                     column and latitude in the right column, both in degrees).

0002111_map.jpg - Buoy location map for these data.

0-email.txt - E-mail from NDBC notifying NODC that four files, which contain
              buoy data collected during March 2005, are ready to be
              downloaded and archived.

1-email.txt - E-mail from NDBC stating that they had corrected data from select
              stations and that NODC may now download and archive the updated
              data files.

2-email.txt - E-mail from NDBC stating that they had corrected data from
              station LONF1 and that NODC may now download and archive the
              updated data files. (Note: In the e-mail, NDBC stated the
              filenames incorrectly.  The correct filenames are of the form
              MMM2005_NODC_LONF1.291, where MMM indicates the month.)
