Cell values reflect the maximum rate of change (in degrees) in elevation between neighboring cells derived with the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst extension. This data set is for Baker Island, Pacific Remote Island Areas, Central Pacific. The data were derived in support of NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program goals. Goal one is to map all U.S. Coral Reef Ecosystems. This data set specifically addresses Objective one and four: to develop high-resolution benthic maps and to characterize priority deep water reefs and associated habitats. This derivative of bathymetry provides a GIS layer that may be used for benthic and essential fish habitat characterization, and for the study of geologic features. By combining the dataset with bathymetry, backscatter, other derivatives, and in situ data, they collectively compose benthic habitat maps which are designed to be used to understand and predict moderate depth (~20m - 150m) benthic habitats for different organisms that inhabit coral reef ecosystems.

The process for deriving the gridded (20 m cell size) multibeam data is described in Baker_20m.asc.txt. The resulting grid (baker_20m.grd) was used in the slope calculation. Slope was calculated using the slope tool in ESRI ArcGIS Spatial Analyst.
