The Gulf of Mexico GIS database is intended to organize and display USGS held data and provide on-line (WWW) access to the data and/or metadata. Purpose: Shapefile of tracklines for Gloria cruises Farn82-7, Farn85-1, Farn85-2, and Farn85-3. The tracklines were extracted from OFR96-707 navigation. The total number of kilometers of single-channel analog seismic reflection data collected on these four cruises was approximately 30,851 km.

No duplicate features are present. Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: The ASCII navigation files for the four GLORIA cruises in the Gulf of Mexico (FRNL82-7, FRNL85-1, FRNL85-2, FRNL85-3) were copied from OFR 96-707. These data were converted to point shapefiles for each of the four data sets. An Avenue script "navpnts2line.ave" written by VeeAnn Cross was used to convert the point files into lines. The four shapefiles were then joined into a single shapefile.2005 Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: FARN82-7.DAT Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: FARN85-1.DAT Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: FARN85-2.DAT Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: FARN85-3.DAT Process_Date: 2005 Source_Produced_Citation_Abbreviation: farntracks.shp Process_Contact: Contact_Information: Contact_Person_Primary: Contact_Person: David Twichell Contact_Organization: U.S. Geological Survey Contact_Position: Oceanographer Contact_Address: Address_Type: mailing and physical address Address: 384 Woods Hole Road City: Woods Hole State_or_Province: MA Postal_Code: 02543-1598 Country: USA Contact_Voice_Telephone: (508) 548-8700 x2266 Contact_Facsimile_Telephone: 508-457-2310 Contact_Electronic_Mail_Address: dtwichell@usgs.gov Process_Step: Process_Description: The shapefile was reprojected from NAD27 to NAD83 using the Project routine in ArcToolbox.
