Metadata: 2012, EGS, Walney Extension, Export Cable Route Additional Geophysical Survey
Abstract:
In May 2012 EGS (International) Ltd was contracted to undertake a pre-construction geophysical and bathymetric survey of the export cable route of the future Walney Extension (WOW03) windfarm site. The surveyed areas were located 22-30 km north-northwest of Walney Island, UK. Survey operations were carried out in three distinct locations; Block 1 and two separate cable routes String 2 and String 3. The survey was a Part 1 Consent and Environmental survey, data gathered for which is anticipated to lead to consent for grab sampling at the proposed sites. EGS conducted a high-frequency Multibeam Echo Sounder (MBES) bathymetric survey, combined with side-scan sonar (SSS), magnetometer and seismic sub-bottom systems. A pole-mounted Kongsberg HiPAP 351P/5 USBL was used for accurate sub-surface positioning of the towed instruments.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 4327 |
| 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. | 2012, EGS, Walney Extension, Export Cable Route Additional Geophysical 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. | 0cf987fdf6554b488f28e7f99626f6db |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 0e356be844f98333b8eedcf3f431e21c |
| 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 | 2012-05-18 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2012-05-30 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
| 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'. | notPlanned |
