Metadata: 2014, ORCA Marine, SULA Diving, Buchan Deep, Marine Archaeological Assessment
Abstract:
ORCA Marine was commissioned by Xodus Group and Hywind (Scotland) Limited (HSL) to assess the potential impacts of the proposed marine wind turbine development of Hywind Scotland Pilot Park, approximately 25km east of Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, near Buchan Deep. This baseline assessment will identify any sites of archaeological or historical significance that might be affected by the proposed development and where / if appropriate make some initial suggestion for managing or mitigating any identified issues and impacts concerning the marine archaeological and heritage resource. The report incorporates a Desk Based Assessment (DBA) of the possible submerged cultural heritage within the Proposed Offshore Turbine Deployment Area and export cable route corridor prepared by Scientific Underwater Logistics and Diving (SULA Diving) on behalf of ORCA Marine. SULA Diving were also commissioned to assist in the evaluation of the remote sensing survey data (multi-beam echo sounder (MBES), side scan sonar (SSS), Magnetometer and sub-bottom Profiler (SBP)) obtained by survey company MMT on behalf of HSL. Also provided within this series is a document detailing key mitigation issues along the export cable route and offshore turbine deployment area, for discussion and agreement.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 4935 |
| 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. | 2014, ORCA Marine, SULA Diving, Buchan Deep, Marine Archaeological Assessment |
| 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. | 7d48c144-a306-44c5-8823-594ac4cfe7d0 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | BD_5 |
| 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 | 2026-04-19 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2026-04-19 |
| 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 |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Although the general quality of the MBES data was suitable for detecting anomalies, with little banding, rippling or other survey artefacts caused by swell and tidal effects, the resolution of the MBES data is, on its own, not suitable to provide a positive identification of a feature. While the majority of the survey track images were of sufficient quality to identify features, fifteen of the longer tracks became pixelated when zoomed in. These survey tracks were not considered of high enough resolution to identify potential cultural features. These tracks are summarised in Appendix 1. |
