The number of substrate classes was reduced because rugosity could not be derived for all areas. Purpose: These data are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public. These data can be used with geographic information systems or other software to identify local seafloor character.

Logical_Consistency_Report: Classification was done on the basis of kelp distribution polygons delineated by interpreter. Completeness_Report: Data covers less than half of the coastline of Santa Cruz Island. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Positional information reflects the WAAS-enabled GSP unit, recording at between 1 to 2 nm. DGPS (WAAS) accuracy for position is less than 3 meters. (From Garmin GPSMAP 76C/76CS Specifications, M01-10108-00, Rev0304, ). Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: Areas of kelp were delineated using interpretive expertise. Seafloor character was assigned assuming kelp areas are hard bottom. Process_Date: 2013 Process_Step: Process_Description: The seafloor character polygons were converted to a 10 meter grid. Process_Date: 2013 Process_Step: Process_Description: Edited metadata to add keywords section with USGS persistent identifier as theme keyword. No data were changed.
