The Pacific Ocean occupies the entirety of this coastal quadrangle off the shores of Monterey County. As an offshore mapping segment, the sheet provides a precise hydrographic record of the open waters just west of the central California coast. The lack of terrestrial features emphasizes the maritime focus of the survey, capturing the nautical character of the region as it was documented in 2012. This specific map serves as a spatial reference for the deep-water approaches to the Big Sur coastline, where the rugged seafloor topography begins its ascent toward the shore just beyond the eastern boundary of this sheet.
