These data were acquired with an AGI SuperSting Marine system that is described at the website: www.agiusa.com/marinesystem.shtml. The particular system used for this acquisition was an 11 electrode array with electrodes spaced 5 meters apart. The potential electrodes are made of graphite, with the remaining electrodes stainless steel. A dipole-dipole configuration was used for the data collection in which two fixed current electrodes are assigned with the measurement of voltage potentials between electrode pairs in the remaining electrodes. Each line of data acquisition records several files. The two files necessary for processing are the *.stg and *.gps file. The STG file contains the resistivity data, while the GPS file contains the navigation information.

Process_Description:
The data were transferred from the logging computer via AGISSAdmin software. The data files available for this day are L2F1.*, L3F1.*, L4F1.*, and L5F1.*.

Process_Description:
The data were merged with navigation and linearized using AGI's Marine Log Manager software.
Process_Date: Unknown
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
In most cases, only that portion of the linearized file that had positive distance along values was exported to the new STG file. In the case of L3F1, L4F1, and L5F1, the entire file was selected for export. These lines were run perpendicular to shore, starting at the shore. Exporting the whole line was necessary to get the nearshore values. Because of the length of one of the files, as well as incorporated turns, L2F1 is broken up and exported to 4 new STG files, and accompanying DEP files. The DEP file contains the distance along line and bathymetry values.
L2F1 is broken into L2F1_part1proc.*, L2F1_part2proc.*, L2F1_part3proc.*, L2F1_part4proc.*.
Process_Date: Unknown
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The DEP files were checked for anomalous bathymetry values, and those lines within the DEP file were deleted. For L3F1, L4F1, and L5F1, the file that was exported in its entirety (which included negative distances along line), had a depth value of 0.1 assigned to the first point in the DEP file. In addition, the first distance along point in the DEP file was modified to be the same as the first point in the XYZ output of a test processing. This was done to ensure that the entire inversion had a water column constraint.

Process_Description:
The STG and DEP files (with an average water resistivity value) were converted to a format suitable for the RES2DINV processing software. The conversion was accomplished by a Visual Basic 6 program written at the USGS office in Woods Hole.

Process_Description:
Edits to the metadata were made to fix any errors that MP v 2.9.34 flagged. 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 source information was incomplete and had to be modified to meet the standard. The process steps without process dates had the date set to unknown. The distributor information needed to be added, along with the distribution format and network resource. 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.
