San Francisco Bay Interferometric Bathymetry: Area A

Description

These interferometric bathymetric data were collected with the Edgetech 6205 sonar system in the San Francisco Bay. Bathymetric and acoustic backscatter data were collected simultaneously in 84 survey blocks. Seventy five of these blocks were surveyed with 100% cover of backscatter imagery and nine blocks were surveyed with 50% backscatter coverage. These data were collected as source material for planned benthic habitat mapping. An earlier project had been completed to map the very-shallow subtidal and intertidal areas using optical methods.
