Metadata: 2010, MMT, Islay and Kintyre Offshore Wind Farms, Geophysical and Hydrographical Offshore Survey
Abstract:
SSE Renewables plans to investigate offshore Wind Farm Development Sites and is starting by exploring two areas. The sites lie along the Scottish west coast. The site Islay lies west of the Island of Islay, and the site Kintyre lies west of the peninsula of Kintyre. The objective was to perform a marine survey campaign for the planned Islay & Kintyre Offshore Wind Farms, to determine the ground conditions for the design and engineering planning of the wind farms. The survey consists of bathymetric full coverage survey, a geophysical reconissance survey and geotechnical sampling survey.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5095 |
| 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. | 2010, MMT, Islay and Kintyre Offshore Wind Farms, Geophysical and Hydrographical Offshore 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. | 98e96854d0d4485898baf9d41bf99eb2 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 042 |
| 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. | dataset |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2010-07-06 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2010-09-27 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 0.9996 |
| Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | m |
| 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. | During the project the QA system was used to: ? Ensure correct logging of data according to the agreed contractual method ? Ensure correct processing of data ? Ensure that charts and reports correspond to the Contractor’s requirements ? Ensure correct storage of collected data ? Maintain efficient work procedures and make daily work routines as smooth as possible ? Track and improve HSE performance ? Improve the working environment The MBES system includes full quality control and data processing facilities capable of statistical analysis and production of Digital Terrain Models (DTM). Soundings are corrected and compensated for the variations in sound velocity, tide, ray bending, and other environmental / atmospheric effects and referenced to the survey vertical datum. Post processing is performed in two stages and using two different software packages |
