Data were collected and processed by the the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center (PCMSC) with fieldwork activity number 2016-666-FA. The bathymetry data are provided as a GeoTIFF image. Purpose: Data were acquired to support USGS geologic hazards projects to aide hazard assessment within the Santa Barbara Basin. High-resolution multichannel minisparker seismic-reflection, multibeam-bathymetry, and acoustic backscatter data were collected to investigate the causes and consequences of submarine landslides in the Santa Barbara Basin. 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 bathymetric features. These data are not intended to be used for navigation.

Logical_Consistency_Report: No formal logical accuracy tests were conducted Completeness_Report: Dataset is considered complete for the information presented, as described in the abstract. Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for additional details. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: The USGS research vessel Parke Snavely was outfitted with an Applanix POS-MV position and motion compensation system. This system has post-processed horizontal positional accuracy of about 0.1 m and roll and pitch accuracies of about 0.02 degrees (https://www.applanix.com/downloads/products/specs/posmv/POS-MV-WaveMaster-II.pdf). Accuracies of final products may be lower due to water depth and total propagated uncertainties of the mapping systems, which include sonar system, position and motion compensation system, and navigation, as well as data processing that includes sounding cleaning, gridding, and datum transformations. Vertical_Positional_Accuracy: Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: The USGS research vessel Parke Snavely was outfitted with an Applanix POS-MV position and motion compensation system. This system has post-processed vertical accuracy of about 0.2 m (https://www.applanix.com/downloads/products/specs/posmv/POS-MV-WaveMaster-II.pdf). Accuracies of final products may be lower due to water depth and total propagated uncertainties of the mapping systems, which include sonar system, position and motion compensation system, and navigation, as well as data processing that includes sounding cleaning, gridding, and datum transformations. Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: In 2016 the USGS research vessel Parke Snavely collected bathymetry data in the northern Santa Barbara Channel region, California using a Reson 7111 multibeam echosounder. Scientists at the USGS Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center processed the bathymetry data post-cruise. The survey line files were imported into Caris HIPS and SIPS software (version 11) for processing. Post-processed Applanix POS-MV attitude data (SBET) were merged with each line file. Water column sound velocity data that was collected throughout the survey was applied to the bathymetry data. The data were cleaned of obvious bad soundings and the soundings were gridded into 5-m surface. The surface was exported as XYZ ASCII file (x-coordinate, y-coordinate, depth) in UTM, zone 10, WGS84 coordinates vertically referenced to the WGS84 ellipsoid. The XYZ files were transformed to UTM, zone 10, NAD83, NAVD88 values using the V-Datum software. The XYZ file was gridded into a new surface using Fledermaus software, exported as an ASCIIRaster file and imported into a Geographic Information System (GIS). The surface was then exported as a TIFF file in UTM zone 10, NAD83, NAVD88.
