Abstract Describes collection of high resolution bathymetric data in the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary by the NOAA ship Rainier during 2001-2004, using multibeam echosounders. Discusses how video, bathymetry data, sediment samples, and backscatter imagery were integrated to describe the geological and biological habitat, and how the data can be used with a GIS for display, query, and analysis. These survey operations were conducted through a partnership between NOAA's Office of Coast Survey (OCS), NOAA's National Marine Sanctuary Program (NMSP), and NOAA's Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (NMAO).
