Abstract: |
This dataset contains a unified GeoTiff with 50x50 meter cell size representing the bathymetry Bight, derived from data collected in 2001 by the of the Charleston Bump off of the South Atlantic NOAA Ship Whiting. NOAA's NOS/NCCOS/CCMA Biogeography Branch, in collaboration with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, as well as the NOAA Ship Whiting , and private sector partners, acquired multibeam bathymetry data off the Charleston Bump from 06/18/2001 to 06/21/2001. Data was acquired with a hull-mounted Kongsberg Simrad Single Beam Echosounder. It was processed by interpolating a bathymetrical surface from feature class points using the spatial analyst natural neighbor tool with 9 neighbor cell radius. The bathymetry raster surface was exported as a 50m GeoTiff and the slope was derived by using the ESRI ArcMap10 Spatial Analyst Slope tool.. |
Purpose: |
This multibeam data was processed as part of a mulitagency cooperative deep-sea coral assessment. The multibeam component of the cruise was intended to both provide fine scale acoustic imagery of known deep coral sites, as well as serve as a nautical survey for charting purposes. The slope of the bathymetry is for the purpose of habitat delineation and classification. |

Data Quality
Completeness Report: |
This GeoTiff is sourced from a CARIS gridded dataset. The original full-resolution singlebeam data was used to create a downsampled uniform-resolution CARIS BASE (Bathymetry Associated with Statistical Error) surface grid with a best depth component. The downsampled grid nodes from that depth surface were then exported and used to generate the ESRI Grid. Some positional shifts may have occurred between the original data points and the transformed grid. |
---|---|
Conceptual Consistency: |
As the survey was not conducted to meet IHO standards, all users should independently analyze the dataset according to their own needs and standards to determine data usability. |

Process Steps
Process Step 1
Description: |
For this project, data was collected aboard the NOAA Ship Whiting from 03/25/00 to 03/28/00. Singlebeam data were acquired in .all format with a hull-mounted Kongsberg Simrad Singlebeam echosounder (95 kHz). Backscatter snippet collection was enabled. Line spacing for acquisition was three times the water depth, and data was retained out to 60 degrees from nadir. Heave, roll, pitch and heading correctors were collected using an Applanix POS/MV Model 320 V4 inertial measurement unit (IMU) and associated Trimble GPS antennas. Sound velocity profiles were acquired with a Seabird Electronics SeaCat SBE19P CTD profiler and processed using NOAA's Velocwin V8.85 software, then applied directly to the raw data. Positioning was obtained using Trimble Zephyr GPS receivers. Data was reduced to Mean Lower-Low Water (MLLW) using final approved tides from NOAA COOPS, based on National Water Level Observation Network (NWLON). |

Process Step 2
Description: |
Raw .all data were converted and processed using CARIS HIPS v6.0 software, resulting in a CARIS HDCS format dataset with all correctors applied. Attitude and SWMB data was cleaned of fliers, and SWMB data was reviewed in subset mode by a NOAA contractor. |

Process Step 3
Description: |
After being submitted to CCMA by the contractor, CARIS HIPS v6.0 was used to generate a CARIS BASE surface (similar to a DTM), based on weighted swath angle, from the processed HDCS data. Then CARIS export tool "BASE Surface to ASCII" was used to export a point feature class in NAD83 UTM zone 17N. |

Source: | CARIS BASE Surface |
Process Step 4
Description: |
The feature class points were interpolated into a grid using ArcMap 10.0 with the spatial analyst natural neighbor interpolation tool, which generated a 50m DTM raster by weighting averages of 9 cell neighborhoods to create a smooth interpolated surface. The grid was exported as GeoTiff in the UTM North American Datum (1983) Zone 17 N. Slope surface was derived from the bathymetry grid by using ESRI ArcMap10 Spatial Analyst slope tool. |
