Bathymetry Hillshade--Offshore Pigeon Point, California

This part of DS 781 presents data for the bathymetry and shaded-relief maps of Offshore Pigeon Point, California. The raster data file is included in "BathymetryHS_OffshorePigeonPoint.zip", which is accessible from http://dx.doi.org/10.5066/F7513W80
The bathymetry and shaded-relief maps of Offshore Pigeon Point, California, were generated from bathymetry data collected by California State University, Monterey Bay (CSUMB), by Fugro Pelagos, and by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Mapping was completed between 2006 and 2009, using a combination of 400-kHz Reson 7125 and 244-kHz Reson 8101 multibeam echosounders, as well as a 234-kHz SWATHplus bathymetric sidescan-sonar system. These mapping missions combined to collect bathymetry from about the 10-m isobath to beyond the 3-nautical-mile limit of California’s State Waters.
