Metadata: 2016, Fugro, Hornsea Project One - Heron Wind and Njord Ventus, UXO Survey
Abstract:
Fugro was contracted by DONG Energy Wind Power A/S (hereafter known as the client) to undertake a pre-construction and unexploded ordnance (UXO) survey on the Hornsea Project One offshore wind farm (HOW01). The HOW01 site is located approximately 105 km east of Spurn Head and the Humber Estuary, in the western North Sea, United Kingdom. The survey comprised of a geophysical survey of wind turbine generators (WTG) and inter-array cables (IAC) on the western (Lot 1) and eastern (Lot 2) part of the HOW01 site. The geophysical survey was undertaken by the Victor Hensen, Fugro Frontier and Fugro Helmert between June and October 2016. The objectives of the pre-construction UXO and engineering survey were: - Acquire high-resolution bathymetry, sidescan sonar, magnetometer and sub-bottom profiler data in the areas specified; - Acquire information on possible ferromagnetic objects; - Assess acquired magnetometer and acoustic data as instructed by the Employer and the Employers UXO Consultant, with the aim of identifying any potential UXO that may form a threat during installation of the wind farm; - Identify natural and man-made objects at or below the seabed that may affect possible offshore installations; - Identify seabed features and objects at or below seabed, both man-made and geomorphological; - Identify and quantify possible biogenic reefs; - Interpret the shallow subsurface (5 m depth) geology.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19043 |
| 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. | 2016, Fugro, Hornsea Project One - Heron Wind and Njord Ventus, UXO Survey |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | UXO 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. | 29c6b095-ca81-43f4-bf30-2c03b0fda759 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-651 |
| 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 | 2016-06-26 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2016-11-01 |
| 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 |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The geophysical survey was undertaken by the Victor Hensen, Fugro Frontier and Fugro Helmert between June and October 2016. All data were collected in ETRS89 geographic datum and referenced to the 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 (UKHO). |
