Metadata: 2007, EMU, Kentish Flats, Bathymetric Swath Survey 6
Abstract:
In accordance with the FEPA licence, there is a requirement to undertake pre-construction and post-construction surveys of a selection of turbine locations and the associated cable corridors to determine rates of scour after construction. Emu Limited was commissioned by Kentish Flats Ltd. to carry out a series of hydrographic surveys spaced at 6 monthly intervals both before and after construction to achieve this requirement. This project relates to the seventh such survey, the sixth since construction of the turbine foundations. The fieldwork was performed between 2nd and 5th November 2007 by our subcontractor Port of London Authority (PLA) using the survey vessel Verifier. Depth data were acquired by a multibeam system fully integrated with motion sensor and navigation software.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 39795 |
| 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. | 2007, EMU, Kentish Flats, Bathymetric Swath Survey 6 |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Bathymetric Swath Survey 6 |
| 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. | aaa62003-09a7-4f49-b634-2c5be9eba0f8 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-790 |
| 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 | 2007-11-02 |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This report describes the hydrographic survey undertaken for Kentish Flats Ltd. in order to determine seabed bathymetry for the detection of scouring rates. This is the seventh such survey in a series of 6- monthly surveys, and the sixth since construction (hence the title Post-Construction Swath Survey 6). The fieldwork was undertaken on 2nd and 5th November 2007 onboard the PLA hydrographic vessel Verifier after mobilisation in Gravesend. A Reson Seabat 8101 240kHz system was employed to collect the swath bathymetry and this was fully integrated with motion sensor equipment and navigation software. The multibeam system gives more than 100% coverage of the seabed ensuring no area goes un-detected and good quality control is achieved. |
