Element Description: Maximum Depth in Meters

The maximum or actual depth at which the collection or observation was made. Use positive values for locations below the surface. Examples: 10 (for a depth of up to 10m). 100 (for a depth between 50m and 100m).

Change Log:

• 03 Sep 2005 - reverted to MinimumElevationInMeters, MaximumElevationInMeters, MinimumDepthInMeters, MaximumDepthInMeters from ElevationInMeters, ElevationRangeInMeters, DepthInMeters, DepthRangeInMeters because the former can better represent original data, which may have one limit or the other without having both.
