Description:

Abstract:

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (CT DEEP), is producing detailed geologic maps of the coastal sea floor. Bathymetry and sidescan-sonar imagery, originally collected by NOAA for charting purposes, provide a fundamental framework for research and management activities in Long Island Sound, shows the composition and terrain of the seabed, and provides information on sediment transport and benthic habitat. During April-May 2009 NOAA completed hydrographic survey H12013 offshore of the entrance to the Connecticut River, and during November 2009 and April 2010 bottom photographs and surficial sediment data were acquired as part of two ground-truth reconnaissance surveys of this area. Two interpretive data layers were derived from the multibeam echo-sounder and the ground-truth data used to verify them. For more information on the ground-truth surveys see: <http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2009-059-FA> and <http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2010-010-FA>

Purpose:

To release a GeoTIFF of the sidescan-sonar data generated during NOAA survey H12013 off the entrance to the Connecticut River in northeastern Long Island Sound, in UTM Zone 18, NAD83.

The original sidescan-sonar data acquired with a Klein 5000 sidescan-sonar system during NOAA survey H12013 aboard a launch deployed from the NOAA ship Thomas Jefferson.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

The sidescan-sonar data were acquired with a Klein 5000 high-speed sidescan-sonar system hull mounted to 8.5-m aluminum launches deployed from the NOAA ship Thomas Jefferson. The system consists of a Klein 5500 towfish, a Transceiver/Processing Unit (TPU), and a computer for user interface; has an operating frequency of 455 kHz; and was set to sweep 100 m to either side of the launch tracks. The Klein 5000 system is distinct from other commercially-available side scan sonars in that it forms 5 simultaneous, dynamically-focused receiver beams per transducer face. This improves along-track resolution to approximately 30cm at the 100m range scale, even when acquiring data at up to 10 knots. Across-track resolution is typically 7.5cm at the 100m range scale. The achievable 30cm resolution meets the NOAA Hydrographic Surveys Specifications and Deliverables Manual (HSSDM) for object detection. Klein SONARPRO was used to acquire the Klein 5000 sidescan sonar data; CARIS SIPS (Sidescan Image Processing) software was used to process the sidescan data and to produce a composite sidescan-sonar image at 1-m horizontal resolution and projected into UTM Zone 18 NAD83.

The image was imported into Adobe Photoshop CS2 in order to apply a linear stretch (i.e., increase the dynamic range of the data), to change image from RGB to 8-bit grayscale, to invert the grayscale to make strong reflections light tones and weak reflections returns darker tones, and to assign a 'NO DATA' value (255).
