2018 Map of Farallon Islands OE E

About this map

Pacific Ocean waters dominate this 2018 survey of the marine environment west of the California coastline. Located in the open sea within the jurisdictional bounds of the City and County of San Francisco, the map focuses on the deep-water expanse of the Gulf of the Farallones. While the landmass of the islands themselves lies on adjacent sheets, this specific quadrant captures the nautical context and bathymetric area of the Pacific shelf, reflecting the maritime territory managed by the U.S. Geological Survey and the National Geospatial Program.
