These raster and vector datasets were developed for the Sea Grant South Coast MPA Baseline Program as part of the project “Nearshore Substrate Mapping and Change Analysis using Historical and Concurrent Multispectral Imagery” (#R/MPA 30 10-049). The study region is the South Coast Region (SCR). Ocean Imaging acquired this imagery on 12/08/2011 using the Digital Multispectral Camera (DMSC). Details on this system and the data processing are below in the Lineage section of this document. Details on this system and the data processing are below in the Lineage section of this document. Individual DMSC image tiles were mosaicked into sections based on the islands covered and local coastal regions as well as the SCR MPA zones in order to generate this multispectral image product. These imagery were subsequently used to generate habitat classification thematic maps of the SCR's kelp beds from Point Conception to Imperial Beach, CA. The imagery files deliverd are in GeoTIFF format. This raster dataset contains a habitat classification of either offshore giant kelp beds along the California South Coast Region (SCR) from from Point Conception, CA down to Imperial beach, CA. This specific raster classification includes the Scorpion SMR.本栅格与矢量数据集是为海格兰特（Sea Grant）南海岸海洋保护区（Marine Protected Area, MPA）基线计划开发，作为“基于历史与同期多光谱影像的近岸底质制图与变化分析”项目（编号#R/MPA 30 10-049）的组成部分。本研究的区域为南海岸区域（South Coast Region, 简称SCR）。海洋影像公司（Ocean Imaging）于2011年12月8日采用数字多光谱相机（Digital Multispectral Camera, DMSC）采集了本次使用的影像数据。关于该设备系统与数据处理的详细说明，请参见本文档的「溯源（Lineage）」章节。为生成该多光谱影像产品，研发团队依据覆盖的岛屿、沿岸区域以及SCR范围内的MPA分区，对单张DMSC影像瓦片进行镶嵌拼接，形成分区影像集。后续利用该影像制作了覆盖加利福尼亚州孔塞普申角（Point Conception）至帝王海滩（Imperial Beach）的SCR范围内海带床生境分类专题地图。本次交付的影像文件采用GeoTIFF格式。本栅格数据集包含加利福尼亚州南海岸区域（SCR）内从孔塞普申角至帝王海滩的近岸巨藻床生境分类数据。本次特定栅格分类数据涵盖了斯科尔皮翁海洋保护区（Scorpion SMR）。
