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.
