Metadata: 2015, Fugro EMU, Race Bank, UXO and Environmental Engineering Survey
Abstract:
Fugro EMU Limited was commissioned by DONG Energy to undertake an unexploded ordnance (UXO) and environmental engineering survey for the Race Bank Offshore Wind Farm (ROW01). The survey area was located in the Wash area off the Norfolk coast, UK. Acquisition of multibeam bathymetry, sidescan sonar and magnetometer data was carried out along the intended export cable routes, inter-array cable routes and on any required wind turbine generator sites. The majority of the offshore survey area was divided between the RV Discovery and the Victor Hensen, with shallow survey operations conducted by the Fugro Seeker. Vessel mobilisations began on the week of the 23 February 2015 in Great Yarmouth, UK, whereupon calibrations and UXO acceptance tests were carried out. Survey operations commenced on the 4 and 5 March 2015 and were completed by the 20 and 16 April 2015 by the RV Discovery and Victor Hensen, respectively. This was followed by a two day demobilisation for each vessel. The inshore extent of survey operations were conducted on board the Fugro Seeker and completed on 27 April 2015.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 18950 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2015, Fugro EMU, Race Bank, UXO and Environmental Engineering Survey |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | UXO and Environmental Engineering Survey |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 037e604d-8865-428a-9bd7-80665dd2cc20 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-1803 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | series |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2015-02-23 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2015-04-28 |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | unknown |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This section includes a brief factual description of the methods used to achieve the project objectives. More detailed descriptions of specific survey techniques and procedures are contained within Fugro EMU’s standard procedures, a component of Fugro EMU’s Quality Management System, which complies with the requirements of BS EN ISO 9001:2008. All data were collected in ETRS89 geographic datum and provided in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) 31 North projection. Depths were reduced to LAT by use of the Vertical Offshore Reference Frame (VORF) model, provided courtesy of the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office. Methodologies for RV Discovery and Victor Hensen were similar with the exception of the multibeam bathymetry and positioning systems, which have been outlined separately. |
