The photos were collected with a modified Van Veen grab modified to carry still and video camera systems (small SEABOSS) during USGS survey 04011, conducted May 25- June 4, 2004. Purpose: This data set was produced to ground-truth (verify) topography and backscatter intensity of the sea floor offshore of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. The acoustic data were collected with a multibeam sea floor mapping system during USGS survey 98015, conducted November 9 - 25, 1998.

This is necessary to enable the metadata to be successfully harvested for various data catalogs. In some cases, this meant adding text "Information unavailable" or "Information unavailable from original metadata" for those required fields that were left blank. Other minor edits were probably performed (title, publisher, publication place, etc.). The metadata date (but not the metadata creator) was edited to reflect the date of these changes. The metadata available from a harvester may supersede metadata bundled within a download file. Compare the metadata dates to determine which metadata file is most recent.
