     176Two 1/3~second grids were created: One for the saddle point covering
    178177Merlin and Tri Trang Beaches and one for Patong City and its immediate
    179 shore area.  These grids were based on the same data used for the 1
    180 second data grid.  The Patong city grid was further modified based on
     178shore area.  These grids were based on the same data used for
     179the 1~second data grid.  The Patong city grid was further modified based on
    181180satellite imagery to include the river and lakes towards the south of
    182181Patong City which were not part of the provided elevation data. 
    183 The depth of the river and lake system was set uniformly to a depth of 1 m.
