This dataset contains wave data collected by surface moorings across three sites (D1, D2 and D3) west of the Isle of Islay between February 2012 and August 2012. There was a Datawell Mk.III directional Waverider buoy moored at each of the three sites collecting the wave data every 30 minutes. The data were collected as part of the metocean survey of the proposed Islay Offshore Windfarm. Partrac Ltd were contracted to conduct the data collection by SSE Renewables and provided the data to The Crown Estate as the landowner of the UK seabed out to 12 nautical miles. The data and associated metadata reports are held at the British Oceanographic Data Centre, as a MEDIN Data Archiving Centre.

Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This dataset was created by Partrac Ltd who were contracted to collect metocean data as part of the proposed Islay Offshore Windfarm. The data were submitted to The Crown Estate, as the landowner of the UK seabed out to 12 nautical miles, and were subsequently loaded to the Marine Data Exchange. The data were manually downloaded from the Marine Data Exchange and processed by the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) as part of BODC’s contribution to the EU European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet) Data Ingestion Project. Instrument(s) used to collect data: wave recorders. |
