Metadata: 2012-2013, Partrac, Zone 9 - Celtic Array, Inshore Metocean Survey
Abstract:
As part of the investigation for cable landfall sites for the Irish Sea Zone (ISZ), there was a requirement to collect one month of oceanographic (wave and tidal current) data from three potential cable landfall sites off the Anglesey coast. This is to provide calibration data for a hydrodynamic model of the area. This report summarises the QC procedure and results from data collected from Nortek AWACs (Acosutic Waves and Currents) deployed at sites 8 and 12. The QC process was done by Patrac Ltd , on behalf of Celtic Array Ltd. Available data set are Raw data in WPR format, Wave and Current Data Site in xls format, plots images in png formats and reports in pdf formats.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 34685 |
| 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. | 2012-2013, Partrac, Zone 9 - Celtic Array, Inshore Metocean Survey |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Inshore Metocean 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. | f7bf04f3-6056-49b4-b0e3-8e94a0cb0c42 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-2704 |
| 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 | 2012-12-20 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2013-01-22 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 3700 |
| Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | urn:ogc:def:uom:EPSG::9001 |
| 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'. | weekly |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Partrac's in house AWAC processing tool was used to QC and processes the current data. To remove potential spikes within the velocity dataset, consecutive (both spatially and temporally) samples were checked for gradient as defined using the IOC Manual of Quality Control. Wave data were quality controlled using the principles supplied by Cefas (Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science) to the WaveNet QA/QC procedures ‘for data obtained from directional Waverider buoys via ARGOS and Orbcomm satellite telemetry’. Directional data were converted from magnetic direction to true by applying a magnetic variation correction of 1.37º W obtained from the BGS model (www.geomag.bgs.ac.uk/gifs/gma_calc.html). Quality control checks consist of range checking and removal of spikes for various parameters |
