  						<gco:CharacterString>HISTORICAL BACKGROUND - While the fifth edition of
                              NOAMER has evolved from previous digital version, the majority of the
                              feature content is based on the National Imagery and Mapping Agency's
                              (NIMA) hardcopy Operational Navigational Chart (ONC) series. The initial
                              digital version of VMap0 was the Digital Chart of the World and was
                              NIMA's first Vector Product Format (VPF) product. The DCW was released
