Description:
Abstract:
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted a geophysical and sampling survey in October 2014 that focused on a series of shoreface-attached ridges offshore of western Fire Island, NY. Seismic-reflection data, surficial grab samples and bottom photographs and video were collected along the lower shoreface and inner continental shelf. The purpose of this survey was to assess the impact of Hurricane Sandy on this coastal region. These data were compared to seismic-reflection and surficial sediment data collected by the USGS in the same area in 2011 to evaluate any post-storm changes in seabed morphology and modern sediment thickness on the inner continental shelf. For more information about the WHCMSC Field Activity, see: https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=2014-009-FA.
Purpose:
This dataset is used to provide the videos and locations of sea floor videos acquired with a GoPro Hero 3+ Black on a modified SEABed OBservation and Sampling System (SEABOSS) collected during a 2014 USGS cruise along Fire Island, New York. The information contained within the bottom photographs and videos is needed to validate geophysical data. This dataset contains seabed videos from each sampling station, as well as location in Geographic coordinates (WGS84). Physical sediment samples, which provide additional information about the seabed, were also collected at each sampling station and analyzed in the sediment laboratory at the USGS Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center (see shapefile 2014-009-FA_samples.shp available from the larger work citation).

Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
The GoPro Hero 3+ black camera used on the modified SEABOSS acquired HD videos at 1920 x 1080 resolution.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Gaps in sequential video filename numbers exist. Videos were clipped to the duration that the camera was within view of the sea floor. Many videos contain imagery of a significant amount of suspended sediment when the sampler hit the sea floor. These videos should be used in conjunction with other data such as co-located photographs and the analyses of co-located sediment sample which provide sediment grain-size data (see shapefile in this data release 2014-009-FA_samples.shp).
Completeness_Report:
This dataset includes sea floor video in MP4 format and a trackline shapefile of the location of the ship for the duration of the video during USGS survey 2014-009-FA aboard the M/V Scarlett Isabella off of Fire Island, New York. Twenty-five sampling sites were occupied within the study area using a modified SEABOSS. Video imagery from the water column and on deck or otherwise not useful for seafloor characterization were deleted. A total of 27 video files are included in this dataset; sampling sites 21 and 23 have 2 video clips, as the sampler did not trigger on the 1st attempt and a second deployment of the sampler was completed at both sites. Video clips published here were from the GoPro Hero3+ Black.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The original video files alone do not represent spatial data, however post-processing the video with the navigation data and survey notes provides the link to spatially locate the imagery. Navigation for survey 2014-009-FA used Real-Time Kinematic Global Positioning System (RTK-GPS) and Differential Global Positioning System(DGPS). The recorded position of each video is actually the position of the GPS antenna on the survey vessel, not the SEABOSS sampler. The SEABOSS was deployed approximately 5 meters astern of the RTK-GPS antenna for samples 1 through 19, and approximately 3 meters astern of the DGPS antenna for samples 20 through 25. Throughout the sampling the SEABOSS was deployed off the ship's A-frame on the stern of the ship. No layback or offset was applied to the recorded position. In addition to the +/- 3 to 5 meter offset the SEABOSS may drift away from the survey vessel when deployed to the seafloor. Based on the various sources for horizontal offsets, a conservative estimate the horizontal accuracy of the bottom photograph and video locations is 20-30 meters.

Source_Contribution:
The SEABed Observation and Sampling System (SEABOSS) was designed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for rapid and effective collection of seabed images and sediment samples in coastal regions. The observations from video and still cameras and the sediment data are used to explore the nature of the seafloor and, in conjunction with high-resolution geophysical data, to make interpretive maps of sedimentary environments and validate the acoustic remote sensing data. This particular setup of the SEABOSS was simplified using a van veen sampler and only GoPro cameras and dive lights to collect sea floor photographs and video without a top-side live video feed. No depth sensor was on the system. In general, the SEABOSS is a simple system that can be deployed from both small and large surface vessels and operates in water depths up to 200m. It typically incorporates two video cameras, a still camera, a depth sensor, and a modified Van Veen sediment sampler. The elements of this particular SEABOSS system are held within a stainless steel framework that measures 1.1 x 1.1 meters and weighs 167 kilograms overall. The frame has a stabilizer fin that orients the system as it drifts over the seabed. The SEABOSS was deployed from the M/V Scarlett Isabella off the ship's A-frame on the stern of the ship. The vessel occupied one of the target stations and deployed the SEABOSS. The winch operator lowered the sampler until the seafloor was sampled. On most stations, the vessel and sampler drifted with wind and current for a few tens of seconds to let the bottom settle and ensure a decent image. The system was then raised and recovered to the deck of the survey vessel. The camera time during this survey was set to UTC; calibration photographs and video with the navigation system indicate that the time offset only drifted by up to 13 seconds throughout the survey and this time offset was not corrected for in the imagery processing.
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Twenty-five stations were occupied aboard the M/V Scarlett Isabella (USGS survey 2014-009-FA) with a modified SEABOSS (Blackwood and Parolski, 2001) that was equipped with a Van Veen grab sampler and two GoPro cameras (Hero 3+ Black, and Hero2) collecting video and photographs. Sea floor video data were acquired at each station, although a second deployment was done at stations 21 and 23, so there are a total of 27 video files. The digital video were downloaded from the camera and backed-up to a laptop and hard-drive periodically during the sampling survey. The original video files alone do not represent spatial data, however, post-processing the video with the navigation data and survey notes makes the link to spatially locate the imagery. The link is possible because the timecode in the video file records acquisition time which can be matched with corresponding time in the navigation logs. However, camera time drift and the precision with which the camera time can be set often results in an offset. In this case, the offset was negligible, ranging from 5 and 13 seconds off of real GPS time, therefore no offset correction was applied to the video in this dataset. Only the video from the primary camera, the GoPro Hero 3+ Black were processed and are being published. This process step and all subsequent process steps were performed by the same person - Seth Ackerman

Process_Description:
The original GoPro videos were clipped and the date and time (extracted from the timecode embedded in the video) was overlaid on the video using the script TCBURN_sda_2014009FA.csh. The TCBURN_sda_2014009FA.csh script is a shell script that uses FFPROBE to determine the timecode information and the duration of the video clip and uses the FFMPEG software to clip and reformat the video file (if necessary). For each video file, sections of the video during deployment and recovery of the SEABOSS including images of the water column and those on the deck of the survey vessel were removed. The resulting video files were renamed by prepending the field activity identifier and the station number to the original video filename (e.g. 2014-009-FA_S1_GOPR6514.MP4).

Another shell script (extract_firstlast.sh), also using FFPROBE and FFMPEG, is run to create temporary framegrabs (in PNG image format) of the first and last frame of the each processed video file. These are used to create a text drift log that includes the video filename, the sampling station number, the UTC start time, UTC end time and duration of the video file.

Then a series of PYTHON scripts (SEABOSStools) were run to match up the video clips with the navigation log. (1) parseHYPACKfolder_gui_sort_all.py - PYTHON script that parses HYPACK navigation data files and outputs formatted UTM time, date, latitude and longitude from the appropriate source GPS device. (2) driftlog_gui_v4.py - PYTHON script that uses the drift log created in the previous process step and the processed navigation file created from the parseHYPACKfolder_gui_sort_all.py script described above. The output of this is the location shapefile for the sea floor videos including a comma-delimited text file (CSV) with the fields field activity identifier, sampling station name, longitude, latitude epochtime (time in seconds since 1 Jan 1970), year and date/time in the format JJJ:HH:MM:SS where JJJ is the Julian day (sequential day number starting at 1 Jan of the survey year) and HH:MM:SS is UTC time in hours:minutes:seconds.
