Metadata: Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Geophysical and Multibeam Survey 2009/6_DETI: 2D Seismic Survey, North Channel, Offshore NE Ireland (14/Sep/2009 to 28/Sep/2009)
Abstract:
This 2D Hi-resolution multichannel seismic survey took place September 2009 in the North Channel Basin offshore NE Ireland on board the Fugro Meridian. The survey was carried out by Fugro on behalf of Natural Environment Research Council (NERC)/Department of Enterprise, Trade and Investment (DETI). The aim was the evaluation of the potential development of offshore gas cavern storage sites in the salt formations of the Permo-Trias. These data are archived by BGS. Technical details of the survey are contained in FugroReport No.: FSLTD 29-00050 and futher information is available in the reports, A geological interpretation of the nearshore area between Belfast Lough and Cushendun, Northern Ireland, utilising a newly acquired 2D seismic dataset to evaluate salt layers for their potential for gas storage in salt caverns (http://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/516832/) and A geomorphological interpretation of multibeam data, nearshore area between Belfast Lough and Cushendun, Northern Ireland (http://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/530766/).

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 7029 |
| 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. | Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Geophysical and Multibeam Survey 2009/6_DETI: 2D Seismic Survey, North Channel, Offshore NE Ireland (14/Sep/2009 to 28/Sep/2009) |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | DETI09 |
| 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. | abc9f747-5491-0f38-e044-0003ba9b0d98 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | BGS_CMD_REF586 |
| 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. | dataset |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2009-09-14 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2009-09-28 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 5 |
| 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'. | notPlanned |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Geophysical equipment types used included: Airgun/Sleeve Gun and Echo Sounder. Fugro was contracted to undertake the survey on behalf of Natural Environment Research Council. For more detailed information on the acquisition equipment and data collection techniques, operational standards, data processing methods and quality control procedures used on this survey see the Report of Survey/Cruise Report and associated documentation where available. The information available may vary depending on the age of the survey. Data are checked and loaded to the BGS Coastal and Marine data management system following BGS marine data management procedures. |
