            <abstract>This composite sub-bottom seismic dataset is a set of seismic cross-sections. The line spacing is between 15m for the lines parallel to the apron and 100m for the cross lines perpendicular to the apron. The dataset is in UTM18N in meters and it is reported relative to NAVD88 Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW), National Tidal Datum Epoch (1983-2001). 

e4 implemented a 1-10kHz chirp for roughly 75% of the lines, and a 4-24kHz chirp for the remaining 25%. The dataset consists of SEGY files in both RAW format and chirp analytical format. There are more than 900 seismic cross-sections</abstract>
            <purpose>The purpose of this data is to provide cross sections through the Holocene sediment layer, in some cases through the Pleistocene and rock. This data is not to be used for navigation but is intended for use in various environmental analyses.</purpose>

            <attraccr>No formal attribute acRepeated lines were acquired at different times. RTK tides were compared with NOAA tide stations. Repeated water velocity measured were made twice a day.

curacy tests were conducted.

Existing borings information benchmarked the results of the seismic cross sections.</attraccr>

        <logic>Tide mesaurements were observed and measured with reference to NOAA tide station at Battery New York (station ID 8518750). 

Exisitng and current bathymetric surveys were used to verify the vertical positioning of the seismic sub-bottom data.</logic>
        <complete>The data consists of two frequency contents, 1-10kHz and 4-24kHz. The RAW chirp signal is available and also the real component fo the analytical waveform is available in SEGY format. The data is for the mapping of shallow waters benthic layer.</complete>

<dataIdInfo><idAbs>The purpose of this data is to provide cross sections through the Holocene sediment layer, in some cases through the Pleistocene and rock. This data is not to be used for navigation but is intended for use in various environmental analyses. This composite sub-bottom seismic dataset is a set of seismic cross-sections. The line spacing is between 15m for the lines parallel to the apron and 100m for the cross lines perpendicular to the apron. The dataset is in UTM18N in meters and it is reported relative to NAVD88 Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW), National Tidal Datum Epoch (1983-2001). e4 implemented a 1-10kHz chirp for roughly 75% of the lines, and a 4-24kHz chirp for the remaining 25%. The dataset consists of SEGY files in both RAW format and chirp analytical format. There are more than 900 seismic cross-sections.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='https://opdgig.dos.ny.gov/datasets/069d50868de34c14ab2da02d39de5da6/explore' target='_self' rel='nofollow ugc'&gt;View Dataset on the Gateway&lt;/a&gt;</idAbs><idPurp>Sub-bottom seismic cross-sections of New York Harbor's Holocene sediment deposit layer, including in some cases the Pleistocene sediment desposit layer and rock.</idPurp><searchKeys><keyword>seismic</keyword><keyword>Atlantic Ocean Program</keyword></searchKeys></dataIdInfo></metadata>
