Horizontal positions are specified in geographic coordinates, that is, latitude and longitude. Latitudes are given to the nearest 0.000001. Longitudes are given to the nearest 0.000001. Latitude and longitude values are specified in Degrees and decimal minutes.
The horizontal datum used is North American Datum of 1983.
The ellipsoid used is Geodetic Reference System 80.
The semi-major axis of the ellipsoid used is 6378137.000000.
The flattening of the ellipsoid used is 1/298.257222.

The purpose of this dataset is to provide the raw resistivity data collected on May 16, 2007 in the Corsica River Estuary by the AGI SuperSting system. Modifications to the raw data were necessary in order to prepare the data for processing.

Data sources produced in this process:
The navigation system used was a Lowrance 480M with an LGC-2000 Global Positioning System (GPS) antenna. The antenna was located at the anchor point for the resistivity streamer, which is also directly above the fathometer transducer mount point. The GPS system is published to be accurate to within 10 meters.
All collected bathymetry values were collected by the 200 kHz Lowrance fathometer. The fathometer was mounted starboard side aft, directly below the GPS antenna and the resistivity streamer tow point. The Lowrance manufacturer indicates the speed of sound used by the system to convert to depths is 4800 feet/second. All values are assumed to be accurate to within 1 meter.
The last file from the previous day of data acquisition was L13F1. The first file for this day of acquisition was L15F1. No file L14F1 was ever generated. Files L24F2, L25F1, L26F1, L27F1, L28F1 and the first part of L29F1 did not have bathymetry values in the navigation files. All other files from this day did have fathometer data. None of the GPS files have temperature data.
