Description:
Abstract:
This part of DS 781 presents fold data for the geologic and geomorphic map of the Offshore of Gaviota map area, California. The vector data file is included in "Folds_OffshoreGaviota.zip," which is accessible from https://doi.org/10.5066/F7TH8JWJ.
In the offshore part of the map area, closely-spaced seismic-reflection profiles image many shallow, west-northwest striking folds that have variable geometry, length, amplitude, continuity, and wavelength. The two longest folds, the 17-km-long Molino anticline and the 22-km-long Government Point syncline, are truncated by the south strand of the Santa Ynez fault to the west and east, respectively. These regionally extensive folds and many shorter, west-trending structures are probably rooted in blind thrusts and backthrusts in the hanging wall above the Pitas Point-North Channel fault system.
Purpose:
To expand geologic mapping to the seafloor within California's State Waters, to update coastal geologic mapping, and to contribute to a uniform regional geologic database. Additionally, to provide a geologic map for the public and geoscience community to aid in assessments and mitigation of geologic hazards in the Santa Barbara coastal region and to provide sufficient geologic information for land-use and land-management decisions both onshore and offshore.
Supplemental_Information:
Map political location: Santa Barbara County, California Compilation scale: 1:24,000 Base maps used are hillshades generated from IfSAR, LiDAR, and multibeam mapping both onshore and offshore (see Bathymetry--Offshore of Gaviota Map Area, California, for more information).

Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Map elements were visually checked for overshoots, undershoots, duplicate features, polygon closure, and other errors by the lead authors and by the GIS technician(s) who created the digital database. Review drafts of the map were reviewed internally by at least two other geologists for consistency with basic geologic principles and general conformity to USGS mapping standards.
Completeness_Report:
Data are complete: no offshore features that could be accurately identified and represented at the compilation scale of 1:24,000 were eliminated or generalized. The smallest area represented is approximately 100 square meters. All geospatial database elements are attributed.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Folds were primarily mapped by interpretation of seismic reflection profile data (see https://doi.org/10.5066/F7SX6BCD for data) Folds lines were digitized by heads-up screen digitization on to shot-point picks from seismic-line navigation data - each shot point has an associated lat/long in the survey data. Error is introduced from layback, as well as from interpretation of oblique features, so horizontal accuracy of fault and fold location is estimated to be on the order of 10 to 20 meters.

Fees: none
Technical_Prerequisites:
The downloadable data file has been compressed with the "zip" command and can be unzipped with Winzip (or other tool) on Windows systems. To utilize these data, the user must have software capable of uncompressing the WinZip file and importing and viewing an Esri ArcMap TIFF. Users should download the ArcGIS Project File, OffshoreGaviotaGIS.mxd.zip, a compressed (with the "zip" command) version of the ArcMap document (.mxd) that has all the data layers loaded in the table of contents for "Offshore Gaviota" and has all the data symbolized as on the OFR map sheets. Download and save this ArcGIS project file, including all data layers, to the directory the user has created for this GIS
