I have figured out where you are converting the depth labels to feet. I removed the conversion to show them in meters. I cannot however figure out why the contours are in feet and not meters. Can you point me in the direction of how to show the depth contours in meters rather than feet. 

Thanks,

After making the change in DncGeosymLabelMaker, try deleting the render cache directory on your hard disk -- the render cache should get regenerated (with depth strings in meters) the next time you run.

The default render cache directory is %LOCALAPPDATA%\Glimpse\Cache\DNC_RENDER\ on Windows, or ~/.cache/glimpse/DNC_RENDER/ on Linux.

The long-term fix will be to add a "soundingDepthUnitConverter" field to RenderCacheConfig, so that this can be changed easily.

I was able to change the labels but I realized the contour line data is in meters but the locations are in logical feet increments i.e. 100, 200 , 300 ft. That seems strange but I assume that is how the DNC data is designed and not something you are specifically doing.
