This layer is a Principal Components Analysis (PCA) derived from the Multibeam Sonar data from the Multibeam layer - 2010-2018 Middle Keys \u2013 presented in this digital atlas. Those data were collected were collected on the NOAA Ship Nancy Foster on a series of cruises between 2010 and 2018. The Geotiff is the result of a principle components analysis using 8 derived complexity surfaces from LiDAR. The surfaces include bathymetry mean, bathymetry standard deviation, curvature, curvature plan, curvature profile, rugosity, slope, and slope of slope The PCA Geotiff can used to delineate different benthic habitat types using a three band color scale. To-date, these data have not been used to create a benthic habitat map.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV>", "summary": "The purpose of this data is to support Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS) benthic habitat map products and research planning efforts.
