| Survey Equipment | Survey Info | Data Type(s) | Data Collected |
|---|---|---|---|
| GPS | --- | Navigation | Global positioning system (GPS) data s-3-09-sf.061 (Provisional best file) Best file with nav in ArcInfo E00 format |
| multibeam | --- | Multibeam | |
| sidescansonar | --- | Sidescan | Bathymetry (Bathymetric survey data were collected in April 2009 just south of Dumbarton Bridge in south San Francisco Bay, California. Portions of the main channel and western shallows/intertidal mudflats were surveyed using an interferometric sidescan sonar system. The bathymetry is provided as a 1-m resolution raster in geoTIFF format, referenced to the vertical datum of mean lower low water (MLLW).) |
