Bathymetry--Offshore Santa Cruz, California

This part of DS 781 presents data for the bathymetry and shaded-relief maps of Offshore Santa Cruz, California. The raster data file is included in "Bathymetry_OffshoreSantaCruz.zip", which is accessible from http://dx.doi.org/10.5066/F7TM785G.
The bathymetry and shaded-relief maps of Offshore Santa Cruz, California, were generated from bathymetry data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Mapping was completed in 2009 using a 234-kHz SWATHplus bathymetric sidescan-sonar system. The mapping mission collected bathymetry data from about the 10-m isobath to beyond the 3-nautical-mile limit of California’s State Waters. NOTE: The horizontal datum of this bathymetry data (NAD83) differs from the horizontal datum of other layers in this data release (WGS84).
