Metadata: 2019, Partrac, Anglian Coastline, Current Data
Abstract:
A marine survey along the Anglian Coastline between The Wash and Southend. The survey will comprise a combination of seabed-mounted and vessel-mounted acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) - the seabed mounted ADCPs (10 in total) will be deployed for a minimum of 35 days and the deployment is likely to be phased given equipment availability. The survey is required to provide model input data to help calibrate/validate a coastal model being constructed along this stretch of coastline. The footprint of the scientific instruments will be small and will be deployed with a marker buoy on the water surface for identification purposes. These data were collected from a Seabed Survey License. A Seabed Survey Licence enables applicants to undertake a range of small scale, temporary activities offshore, which physically interact with the seabed. As they are smaller individual surveys, not all of the deliverables comply with the MEDIN Guidelines required for other data on the Marine Data Exchange. If you have any queries regarding the contents of this series, please do get in touch with us at mde@thecrownestate.co.uk.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19402 |
| 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. | 2019, Partrac, Anglian Coastline, Current Data |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Current Data |
| 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. | ca595ae8-da6b-4596-b03c-f3ad662860a3 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-3952 |
| 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 | 2019-08-19 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2019-12-03 |
| 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. | Data from the AWAC were analysed and exported using the Nortek ‘Storm’ software. The AWAC sensor and associated software implement several QC checks onboard and during the export process, respectively. Data flagged in this way by the Nortek utilities may be removed from processing. |
