Metadata: 2012, Envision Mapping Ltd., Kyle Rhea Tidal Stream Array, Benthic Video Survey
Abstract:
The purpose of this present survey was to provide detailed seabed habitat and species information for the Kyle Rhea Tidal Array project, allowing characterisation of the seabed as part of the Kyle Rhea Tidal Array Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) to support the applications for statutory consents. The characterisation will support an assessment of potential impacts of the proposed development on the seabed environment. The specific objectives of the study were to carry out a video survey to characterise the seabed within the study area in terms of distribution and abundance of marine habitats and communities, identify habitats or species of conservation importance and determine the substrate type at all locations sampled.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 26225 |
| 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. | 2012, Envision Mapping Ltd., Kyle Rhea Tidal Stream Array, Benthic Video 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. | f648fdd6-46bb-4798-9bc4-f77da320ef5c |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | CES-198 |
| 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 | 2012-06-11 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2012-06-16 |
| 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 |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | The purpose of this present survey was to provide detailed seabed habitat and species information for the Kyle Rhea Tidal Array project, allowing characterisation of the seabed as part of the Kyle Rhea Tidal Array Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) to support the applications for statutory consents.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The video clips captured were reviewed during non-boat time to ensure that the recordings were of sufficiently good quality for analysis. This allowed opportunity during the survey to repeat any samples for which the video was deemed unsuitable. During analysis, each video clip was observed several times: firstly to get an overview of the sample site; secondly to obtain substrate data; thirdly to obtain species data and fourthly, to take frame grabs to illustrate particular features. |
