Equipment Used
|
|
|
Purpose
|
To continue mapping of the outer and mid continental shelf of north-central
California, and to ground truth side-scanning sonar images with underwater
video.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Extent and morphology of offshore rock outcrops within the Gulf of the
Farallones and Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuaries. Bio diversity survey
across the areas covered.
|
|
|
Summary
|
Collected approximately 117 line kilometers of side-scanning sonar data and 50
km of underwater video footage of the areas surveyed.
