Metadata: 2008, Osiris Projects, Robin Rigg Offshore Wind Farm, Mid-construction Geophysical Survey
Abstract:
On the instructions of E.ON Climate & Renewables UK, Osiris Projects were commissioned to undertake a pre-construction geophysical and scour monitoring survey covering the proposed Robin Rigg Offshore Wind Farm development site. The survey was undertaken during the period 26th March to 27th April 2008. High-resolution side scan sonar, swath multi-beam and single beam bathymetry and magnetometer data were acquired along all survey lines, which were run at 100m centres, with cross lines at 200m centres, in order to accurately map the seabed within the wind farm development area. The primary objectives of the survey were to map bathymetry and seabed features, including the presence of any magnetic anomalies within the wind farm area. A number of additional works were also undertaken; these included more detailed bathymetric data collection around a selected number of recently installed turbine bases to monitor the extents of seabed scouring. More detailed bathymetric data collection was also carried out around the location of the proposed sub-station and its close surroundings, where inter-array cables will be more densely concentrated. Detailed bathymetric data was also collected around the existing meteorological mast. This is located to the NE of the development area. A seabed level comparison was undertaken using the bathymetric data from the 2007 and 2008 surveys. Detailed bathymetric data was also collected around a series of proposed turbine locations, where spud-leg depressions from the jack-up rig were causing concern.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5445 |
| 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. | 2008, Osiris Projects, Robin Rigg Offshore Wind Farm, Mid-construction Geophysical Survey |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | C8004 |
| 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. | d2bae207-3d2b-4f35-86da-1fe6891a3f24 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | C8004 |

| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2008-03-26 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2008-04-27 |
| Vertical extent (min) | A positive or negative decimal number, for example, the shallowest depth recorded if subtidal, or, if intertidal, the lowest point recorded. | -4.3 |
| Vertical extent (max) | A positive or negative decimal number, for example, the deepest depth recorded if subtidal, or, if intertidal, the highest point recorded. | -19.2 |
| Vertical extent reference | This descibes the vertical coordinate reference system as referred to in the EPSG register of geodetic parameters. (epsg-registry.org) | Ordnance Datum |
| 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'. | biannually |
