The physical characteristics included in this merged data set -- seafloor geology, estuaries, bathymetry, and latitude -- were chosen by marine fisheries experts as the essential elements of groundfish habitat. Seafloor geology is classified according to Greene et. al. (1999) deep-water marine benthic habitat scheme. Seafloor feature interpretation was performed by West Coast geologic mapping experts as a synthesis of various source data sets, including side-scan sonar, bottom samples, seismic data, and multibeam bathymetry. The Active Tectonics and Seafloor Mapping Lab, College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences, Oregon State University developed the data for Oregon and Washington. The Center for Habitat Studies, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories developed the data for California. Bathymetry consists of 10-meter depth contours. Latitude is delineated in 10 minute zones. Most estuarine areas were not included in the geological data, but because they are also important areas for some groundfish species, the boundaries of estuarine areas were also included in the merged data set. Purpose: These data were developed for Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission in cooperation with the National Marine Fisheries Service Northwest Region and the Pacific Fishery Management Council in support of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to consider the designation and conservation of Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) for Pacific Coast Groundfish. These data were consolidated and integrated in a GIS format to support spatially explicit groundfish habitat modelling and impacts assessment on a coastwide scale. Supplemental_Information: The merged West Coast EFH habitat layer is divided into five regional coverages due to processing limitations of ArcInfo software. Most of the input data layers were developed from different data sources and with different shoreline data sets. Due to time and resource limitations, the inconsistencies created by different shorelines and different bathymetry data sets were not manually corrected. The shoreline and seaward boundaries of the geological habitat layer were used as the primary boundaries to which the other layers were clipped.

Native_Data_Set_Environment: Microsoft Windows 2000 Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 1; ESRI ArcCatalog 8.3.0.800 Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: Most attribute validation was performed during creation of source data layers. Some polygons between the inshore edge of the bathymetry data and the shoreline of the geological habitat had no depth zone information, so they were assigned maximum depth of 10-meters and minimum depth of 0-meters Logical_Consistency_Report: Each source data set has its own caveats, and the consistency of the merged data is based upon the characteristics of the source data. Please refer to the source metadata for each input layer for further details. In addition, the geology, bathymetry, and estuary data sets each use a different shoreline. The geological habitat layer was chosen as the primary layer, so its shoreline boundary was designated as 0-meters depth. This approach may highlight the misalignment between the bathymetry layer and the 0-meters depth line. The misalignment between the geological habitat shoreline and the estuaries shoreline is exhibited by small gaps and overlap areas between these two layers that are not 'real', but are artifacts of the differences in the shoreline data. Completeness_Report: Spatial extent is defined by the extent of the geological habitat data and the estuaries data. Data are generally complete for marine continental shelf and slope off the West Coast of the United States, as well as some deeper habitat types. Mapping extended from the shoreline to approximately 50-200 kilometers offshore. Part of the Strait of Juan de Fuca is mapped. The estuary boundaries add to the inshore extent of the data, however, there are some gaps between the inshore extent of the geological habitat data and the estuary boundaries. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Horizontal accuracy of the source data are unknown.
