BathymetryA Hillshade [2m]--Monterey Canyon and Vicinity Map Area, California

This part of DS 781 presents data for 2-m and 5-m bathymetry and shaded-relief maps of Monterey Canyon and Vicinity, California. Bathymetry data are provided as separate grids depending on the mapping resolution. Data collected at shallower depths by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and California State University, Monterey Bay (CSUMB) have a spatial resolution of 2 m per pixel, whereas data collected at deeper depths by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) have a spatial resolution of 5-m per pixel. This metadata file describes the shaded-relief 2-m data collected by the USGS and CSUMB, and processed by the USGS. The raster data file is included in "BathymetryAHS_2m_MontereyCanyon.zip," which is accessible from http://dx.doi.org/10.5066/F7XD0ZQ4. [...]
