Video Observations

Please see the California State Waters Map Series Data Catalog, USGS Data Series 781, for a list of the most recent publications that show these video observations.

Each GIS data file containing video observations is listed below with a brief description, a small image, and links to the metadata files and the downloadable data files. The data were compiled in ArcMap (version 10.0, ESRI, 2011). The point features are in shapefile format and are projected in UTM Zone 10 and 11 coordinates, with horizontal datum WGS84. We recommend that you create a single new folder within which to unzip the files you want to use.

The downloadable data files have been compressed with the "zip" command, and they can be unzipped with Winzip (or other tool) on Windows systems. The .zip for a shapefile includes the .aux, .dbf, .shp, .shx, .sbx, and .sbn files, as well as the text (.txt) and XML (.shp.xml) versions of the metadata.
