This data set contains a surface depicting the elevations paleochannel unconformities underlying the inner shelf of Long Bay, offshore of the South Carolina Grand Strand. Chirp seismic data collected with Benthos SIS-1000 and Edgetech SB-512 acquisition systems were processed using SIOSEIS (Scripps Institute of Oceanography) and Seismic Unix (Colorado School of Mines) to produce segy files and jpg images of the profiles. Data were then imported into Landmark SeisWorks, a digital seismic interpretation package, where the paleochannel unconformities were interpreted and digitized to calculate their depth beneath the seafloor. Interpreted horizons were exported at every 50th shot as xyz points, and imported to ArcGIS for interpolation into a 100-m raster grid.
