This cruise totalled 8 survey days. Data from this survey were recorded in analog form and archived at the USGS. Due to recent interest in the geology of Rhode Island Sound and in an effort to make the data more readily accessible while preserving the original paper records, the seismic data from this cruise were scanned and converted to TIFF images and SEG-Y data files. Navigation data were converted from LORAN-C time delays to latitudes and longitudes, which are available in ESRI shapefile format and as eastings and northings in space-delimited text format. Purpose: This GIS layer contains the 15- minute ship-track navigation collected aboard the R/V Asterias during a 1975 geophysical cruise in eastern Rhode Island Sound. It corresponds to a75_6lines2.shp and the black and white TIFF images of the seismic lines. It is part of a digital version of a regional map showing the distribution of sub-bottom seismic profiles collected in Rhode Island Sound. The seismic data collected along these ship tracks can be used to provide useful information about the framework geology in this region.

Logical_Consistency_Report: The layers were edited and processed in a consistent manner. Completeness_Report: Navigation points are spaced at approximately 15-minute intervals and at course changes or line events (start/end of line). The logbook navigation for two points in the survey was determined to be incorrect and the points have been excluded from the data set (line 11b time 1945 and line 14 time 815). Continuous navigation is not available. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: All navigation was done by LORAN-C and was manually recorded. The cruise used the Group Repetition Interval 9930 U.S. East Coast chain and recorded time delays from Cape Race, Newfoundland (X) and Dana, Ind. (Z) slave transmitters. Time delays were manually corrected: +1.2 for X (TD1) and -3.1 for Z (TD2), a distance of about 1.3 km, was applied to the time delays. Absolute accuracy is 185 to 463 m based on a link no longer available from http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/. The original link referred to the loran/handbook/h-book.htm (see Chapter III).

Process_Step: Process_Description: LORAN-C time delays (chain 9930) from the R/V Asterias Cruise ASTR75-June Logbook were converted in a batch to latitude and longitude (WGS84 projection) using LoranGPS 6.2 using the X and Z chains and selecting the output as decimal degrees.

Lines are named using the following convention: for instance, 25Ab signifies the line 25A, section b (capital letters are part of the line name as recorded on the seismic records, lower case letters refer to sections of the line that were split during data collection or during scanning). Lines were cut during scanning when they were too long to scan all at once.

Latitudes and longitudes and time delays for 10 points in eastern Rhode Island Sound (RIS) were plotted by hand on the original trackline chart. The differences between the plots of latitude/longitude and time delays were measured and averaged. The average correction, +1.2 for TD1 and -3.1 for TD2, a distance of about 1.3 km, was applied to the time delays.

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.). Minor fixes to the attribute format for some attributes were needed. 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.

This point was not recorded in the logbook, so it does not have values for the time delays or the associated latitudes and longitudes attribute fields. This metadata was partially generated by importing an existing metadata file in text format. A known bug in ArcCatalog is that importing metadata can under certain circumstances scramble some attribute tags. All the attributes and their definitions are present, but the order of the attributes in the metadata does not match the order of the attributes in the attribute table.
