The vector data file is included in \"Geology_OffshorePointConception.zip,\" which is accessible from https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5066\/F7QN64XQ. These data accompany the pamphlet and map sheets of Johnson, S.Y., Dartnell, P., Cochrane, G.R., Hartwell, S.R., Golden, N.E., Kvitek, R.G., and Davenport, C.W. (S.Y. Johnson and S.A. Cochran, eds.), 2018, California State Waters Map Series-Offshore of Point Conception, California: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2018-1024, pamphlet 36 p., 9 sheets, scale 1:24,000, https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3133\/ofr20181024.  Marine geology and geomorphology was mapped in the Offshore of Point Conception map area, California, from approximate Mean High Water (MHW) to the 3-nautical-mile limit of California's State Waters. Offshore geologic units were delineated on the basis of integrated analyses of adjacent onshore geology with multibeam bathymetry and backscatter imagery, seafloor-sediment and rock samples, digital camera and video imagery, and high-resolution seismic-reflection profiles.",
