Metadata: 2006, Marine Geosystem, Sheringham Shoal Wind Farm Site, Geotechnical Survey
Abstract:
Marine GeoSystem has carried out the geotechnical survey on behalf of Scira. Geotechnical testing was performed offshore by Gardline Geosciences, with further onshore testing performed by Soil Mechanics. Reporting has been carried out by SEtech, part of the Gardline Group. This report presents the findings of the survey. A geotechnical soil survey has been carried out to determine the geotechnical properties of the foundation strata to a depth up to and including but not exceeding 70m below seabed dependant on the borehole geology as encountered and became known during the drilling operations. A nominal borehole depth of 50m below seabed was required. Geotechnical testing generally comprised alternate PCPT testing and push sampling. Overall the water depths in the survey areas range from about 15m to 20m.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5027 |
| 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. | 2006, Marine Geosystem, Sheringham Shoal Wind Farm Site, Geotechnical 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. | 8d5dd84e7cd250eb9ca8f8d80ef3c30f |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 4840 |
| 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 | 2006-07-12 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2006-07-28 |
| Vertical extent (min) | A positive or negative decimal number, for example, the shallowest depth recorded if subtidal, or, if intertidal, the lowest point recorded. | -19.21 |
| Vertical extent (max) | A positive or negative decimal number, for example, the deepest depth recorded if subtidal, or, if intertidal, the highest point recorded. | -18.49 |
| Vertical extent reference | This descibes the vertical coordinate reference system as referred to in the EPSG register of geodetic parameters. (epsg-registry.org) | LAT |
| 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 |
