These files are part of a geographic information system of spatially referenced data related to the USGS Coastal and Marine Geology Program "Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary Project" . The data were collected and analyzed between 1994 and 2000. Purpose: These data are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public. The data can be used with geographic information systems (GIS) software to display geologic and oceanographic information about the shallower areas of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary.

Completeness_Report: Except for a few points, point files include only those points for which a 'RECOVERY' was recorded. 'NO RECOVERY' points were added if sample analyses referred to that point. This occurred when small amounts of sample were scraped off the sampling device which had otherwise failed to retain a sample. Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: Sample locations were extracted from the navigation logs on the basis of time of collection. Data were lodged in the Coastal and Marine Geology (CMG) Infobank (http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank) as ASCII text. These text files were converted to ArcInfo point coverages.
