Description:
Abstract:
High resolution bathymetric, sea-floor backscatter, and seismic-reflection data were collected offshore of southeastern Louisiana aboard the research vessel Point Sur on May 19-26, 2017, in an effort to characterize mudflow hazards on the Mississippi River Delta front. As the initial field program of a research cooperative between the U.S. Geological Survey, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, and other Federal and academic partners, the primary objective of this cruise was to assess the suitability of sea-floor mapping and shallow subsurface imaging tools in the challenging environmental conditions found across delta fronts (for example, variably distributed water column stratification and widespread biogenic gas in the shallow subsurface). Approximately 675 kilometers (km) of multibeam bathymetry and backscatter data, 420 km of towed chirp data, and 550 km of multichannel seismic data were collected. Varied mudflow (gully, lobe), prodelta morphologies, and structural features were imaged in selected survey areas from Pass a Loutre to Southwest Pass.
Purpose:
This dataset is used to display the locations of sound velocity profiles (SVP, also referred to as sound speed profiles), as well as the SVP data, collected during a 2017 USGS cruise along the Mississippi River Delta front. The sound velocity profiles document water column sound speed variability during the cruise, and were used during processing to account for refraction artifacts present within the multibeam bathymetric data. The dataset contains graphs of the sound velocity profile at each station location, as well as location in Geographic Coordinate System (GCS) WGS 84 latitude and longitude, the time of day, and date of collection.

Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Sound velocity profiles were acquired with an ODIM MVP30 moving vessel profiler (MVP) from 20170521 to 20170526 (jd 141-146). No sound speed profiles were collected between 14:38 and 18:28 UTC on 20170522 (jd 142) while the MVP30 was inoperable due to cable failure. These data only contain the downcast data collection.
Completeness_Report:
Each sound velocity profile (74 total) collected during cruise 2017-003-FA is represented by an ASVP formated ASCII text file (see description below in the entity and attribute overview section), a PNG image file, and a feature point location in the Esri shapefile. Profiles MVP30__0046 and MVP30__0057 were faulty and excluded during QA/QC processing.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
DGPS navigation data for the sound velocity profiles were acquired using the WGS 84 coordinate system with an Applanix POS MV Wavemaster (model 220, V5) with two AeroAntenna Technologies GPS antennas located at either end of a 2-m baseline, which was oriented fore and aft and mounted atop the MBES pole, approximately midships on the starboard side of vessel. Position data were supplied to the MVP30 topside via a serial connection from HYPACK (17.0.26.0) survey software. While the horizontal position accuracy is thought to be within 0.5 - 2 meters for the DGPS position solutions, we consider the sound velocity profile positions to be within 10 m, since the location of the MVP30 smart winch, which was used to deploy the MVP while underway, approximately 8 meters aft of the MBES pole was not accounted for.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
MVP30 tow fish depths are calculated by the MVP (version 2.391) acquisition software, which converts pressure sensor readings to depth using the standard formulas described in Fofonoff, N.P.and Millard, R.C., Jr., 1988, Algorithms for computation of fundamental properties of seawater, UNESCO Technical Papers in Marine Science, No. 44. The depths are thought to be accurate to within 1 meter.

Sound velocity profiles were collected using an ODIM MVP30 moving vessel profiler (MVP) mounted on the stern. MVP (version 2.391) acquisition software running on a laptop PC controlled the smart winch and deployment system, allowing free fall deployment of the MVP fish at a user specified time interval while the vessel was underway. An AML Oceanographic MVP X SVPT probe attached to the tow body collected sound velocity, pressure, and temperature data during each deployment. Data were transmitted via the coaxial tow cable to the acquisition PC and data collected during the downcast portions of the deployment were logged to the Kongsberg SIS ASVP ASCII format. Position data were supplied to the MVP30 topside via a serial connection from HYPACK (17.0.26.0) survey software, and logged to the ASVP format files.

SVP profile acquisition at sea:
Sound velocity profiles were collected every 1-5 hours and sometimes more frequently using the ODIM MVP30 moving vessel profiler from 20170521 to 20170526 (jd 141-146).
This process step and all subsequent process steps were conducted by the same person - Wayne Baldwin.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Plot the SVP data and import into Spatialite database:
A python script was used to read the ASVP data and plot the sound speed profile as speed of sound (meter/second) versus depth (meters). Position, date, time, and profile id were pulled from the asvp header and written into the image (PNG) for reference. Within the same script, the position, Julian day, time, and profile id were also imported into a Spatialite (version 4.3.0) enabled SQLite (version 3.21.0) database table. The geographic positions were used to create point geometries for the station locations, and additional fields indicating Survey_ID, Vessel_ID, Device_ID, and ImageLink were added.
Process_Date: 201705
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Create Esri shapefile containing the point data:
The MVP point features were added (Add Data) into ArcMap (version 10.3.1) from the SQLite database, then exported (Right click on database feature class > Data > Export Data) to the new Esri point shapefile 2017-003-FA_MVPdata.shp.
