Index map Information Specialist Pete Dartnell Crew Jim Gardner Chief Scientist, USGS Western Region Art Kleiner Party Chief, C&C Technologies Equipment Used multibeam GPS integratednavigation Purpose Map areas around the Hawaiian Islands (Kauai, Oahu, Maui, Hawaii) to support a variety of projects, including marine disposal site studies, coral reef studies, and Marine Sanctuary studies. Information to be Derived Bathymetry, backscatter, slope, sediment volumes, interpreted geology, etc Summary Completed survey and processed bathymetry and backscatter data off specific areas of the Hawaiian Islands, including Kauai Oahu, Hawaii, and the Humpback Whale Marine Sanctuary between Molokai, Maui, Lanai, and Kahoolawe.
