Schreppel Carolyn H. Degnan Dan R. Metzger Shawn V. Dadisman 2013 1.0 Digital Document U.S. Geological Survey Data Series 757 St. Petersburg, FL U.S. Geological Survey http://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/757 Single-beam bathymetry data along with DGPS and GPS navigation data were collected as part of the U.S. Geological Survey cruise M-1-97-WO. The cruise was conducted in Southwest Washington Inner Shelf from July 7 to July 15, 1997. The chief scientists were Pat McCrory and Dave Twitchell from the USGS Coastal and Marine Geology office in Menlo Park, CA. The purpose of this cruise was to collect geophysical data to aid in characterizing seismic hazard of nearshore faults & coastal erosion hazards. The geophysical source is a 3.5 kilohertz (kHz) system. These data are reformatted from space-delimited ASCII text files located in the Coastal and Marine Geology Program (CMGP) InfoBank field activity catalog at http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/m/m197wo/html/m-1-97-wo.meta.html into MGD77T format provided by the NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center(NGDC). The MGD77T format includes a header (documentation) file (.h77t) and a data file (.m77t). More information regarding this format can be found in the publication listed in the Cross_reference section of this metadata file. These data and information are intended for science researchers,students, policy makers, and general public. These data are not to be used for navigation purposes. The data are reformatted into MGD77T standard format for inclusion into NOAA's NGDC geophysical database. From there the data will be made available to GeoMapApp (http://www.geomapapp.org/) and Virtual Ocean (http://www.virtualocean.org/) Earth-browsing software. Access to the data is also provided via the USGS Coastal and Marine Geoscience Data System (http://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/). The navigation data are digitally collected using a Ashtech x11 Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) and Magnovox mx 2000 Global Postioning System (GPS). The DGPS and GPS are a space-based satellite navigation system maintained by the United States government and is accessible using a GPS receiver. Data accuracy is based on individual receiver models, and most GPS data is collected in the WGS84 horizontal datum. The Data Acquisition, Processing, and Storage (DAPS) group performs a number of processing steps to the navigation data once it is collected which can vary by cruise. These steps are outlined within the header information in each individual digital navigation (.0xx, .6xx) space-delimited ASCII data file. The header information rows are indicated by lines beginning with the character "!". The single-beam bathymetry data are collected both digitally and as analog records with a 3.5 kHz system. The bathymetry datasets were commonly processed using three programs: (A) Batred, which calculates depth from travel times; (B) nosamebathy, which eliminates identical adjacent bathymetry values; and (C) nozerobathy, which removes records with a depth value of "0.0". However, not all of the datasets included in this report were processed with one or more of these programs. If the data was not run through these programs it was reformatted using the most recent "best file" on InfoBank, often these were categorized by InfoBank as raw bathymetry files. Details about which processing steps were taken by the DAPS group can be found in the header information of the bathymetry and navigation ASCII files downloaded from InfoBank. Prior to reformatting the data into MGD77T format the "best" bathymetry and navigation files from InfoBank were edited to remove the header information and reformatted using Excel 2010 to separate the data into columns based on tabs. Next the bathymetry and navigation files were merged based on time and latitude and longitude. The combined navigation and bathymetry was saved as a .txt file. This combined bathymetry and navigation file was used as an input file into the GEODAS ReFormat to MDG77T program developed by NOAA's NGDC. The program outputs the reformatted data as a tab-delimited .m77t file. The program is available for use at: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/gdas/gx_announce.Html. For information regarding fields found within the MGD77T files, please refer to the publication, Hittelman and others (2010), found within the Cross-reference section of this metadata file. Each MGD77T data file also has an accompanying header file (.h77t). The fields within these header files are also defined in the aforementioned publication. Fields are populated based on InfoBank metadata records, digital data file headers, and accompanying publications (often cruise reports) for the survey. If a field is unknown or did not apply to the dataset it is intentionally left blank. 19970707 19970715 ground condition Complete None planned -125.94466 -124.22401 48.32233 46.91283 USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:7bcc685a-f480-4726-9f17-cfc3e480c675 ISO 19115 Topic Category geoscientificinformation oceans None Marine Geology Marine Geophysics Single-beam Bathymetry Water Depth Seafloor Topography Data Categories for Marine Planning distributions bathymetry and elevation Marine Realms Information Bank (MRIB) Keywords single-beam echo sounder marine geophysics USGS Thesaurus single-beam echo sounder bathymetry measurement bathymetry marine geophysics Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) State of Washington North Pacific Ocean State of Oregon None.

Uses of these data should not violate the spatial resolution of the data.

Data quality is unknown, MGD77T files were formatted from InfoBank files identified as best available version. This data set is from one field activity with unknown instrument calibrations. Processed bathymetric depths were spot checked based on latitude and longitude against the Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) grid within GeoMapApp to ensure reasonable values. Start and end date/times of data according to DAPS group. Reasons for gaps in data varies by cruise, see InfoBank for more details. >Navigation Data (m-1-97-wo.061 [GPS]) >YYYYMMDDHHMMSST YYYYMMDDHHMMSST >199707072310080 199707091929210 >199707091935310 199707101925120 >199707101931240 199707111921030 >199707111927170 199707131912260 >199707131919030 199707141908240 >199707141914520 199707151903230 >199707151910480 199707152359120 >YYYYMMDDHHMMSST YYYYMMDDHHMMSST >Bathymetry Data (m-1-97-wo.300_061) >YYYYMMDDHHMMSST YYYYMMDDHHMMSST >199707072310420 199707091929210 >199707091935510 199707101925120 >199707101931330 199707111921030 >199707111927330 199707131912260 >199707131919410 199707141908240 >199707141916260 199707151903230 >199707151911290 199707152358290 >YYYYMMDDHHMMSST YYYYMMDDHHMMSST Unspecified Unspecified Below are the details about which processing steps were taken by the DAPS group that can be found in the header information of the ASCII files downloaded from InfoBank.
