Slope grid (5 m) derived from gridded bathymetry of US Territory of Guam

Description

Slope is derived from gridded (5 m cell size) bathymetry from four sources: Multibeam bathymetry collected by Coral Reef Ecosystem Division aboard NOAA R/V AHI, and NOAA Ship Hi'ialakai; multibeam bathymetry collected in Apra Harbor by the Naval Oceanographic Office and NOAA Office of Coast Survey; lidar collected by the Naval Oceanographic Office; and lidar collected by the Joint Airborne Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise. Cell values reflect the maximum rate of change (in degrees) in elevation between neighboring cells derived with the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst extension. This data set is for the US Territory of Guam.
