Description:
Abstract:
These data were collected under a cooperative agreement between the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management (CZM) and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Coastal and Marine Geology Program, Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center (WHCMSC). Initiated in 2003, the primary objective of this program is to develop regional geologic framework information for the management of coastal and marine resources. Accurate data and maps of seafloor geology are important first steps toward protecting fish habitat, delineating marine resources, and assessing environmental changes due to natural or human impacts. The project is focused on the inshore waters of coastal Massachusetts, primarily in water depths of 2-30 meters. Data collected for the mapping cooperative have been released in a series of USGS Open-File Reports (<http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/project-pages/coastal_mass/html/current_map.html>). The data collected in this study area are located in both Buzzards Bay and Vineyard Sound and are primarily in the shallow water areas around the eastern Elizabeth Islands and Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. The data include high resolution bathymetry, acoustic-backscatter intensity, sound velocity in water, seismic-reflection profiles, and navigation data. These data were collected during several cruises between 2007 and 2011 onboard the R/V Rafael using the following equipment: an SEA Ltd SwathPlus interferometric sonar (234 kHz), Klein 3000 dual frequency sidescan sonar, a boomer source and Geometrics 8-channel GeoEel streamer, a Knudsen 3200 subbottom profiling system, and 4 GPS antennae. More information about the cruises conducted as part of the project: Geologic Mapping of the Seafloor Offshore of Massachusetts can be found on the Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center Field Activity webpages: <http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2011-013-FA> <http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2009-068-FA> <http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2007-039-FA><http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2010-100-FA><http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2010-047-FA>
Purpose:
These raw HYPACK navigation data are included as an archive documenting the survey area and the instrumentation used to manage the ship's navigation.These navigation data are useful for supplementing the seismic navigation where those data are absent or unreliable.

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
The times recorded in the navigation file are in UTC. File 000_1146.193 is anomalous and doesn't always conform to the following definitions. Keywords and the information they provide are as follows: FTP: The first record located at the top of the header used to identify the file format. VER: HYPACK version number. INF: General survey information filled in by the data technician. On this cruise, none of that information was filled in. The three numbers at the end refer to initial tide correction at start-of-line, initial draft correction at start-of-line and sound velocity. FIL: Raw format file. ELL: Ellipsoid information. The name of the ellipsoid followed by the semi-major axis in meters and the flattening ratio. PRO: Project information record where TME indicates Transverse Mercator and the central meridian of -69 indicates UTM, zone 19. DTM: Datum transformation record. GEO: Geoid Model File. Blank if not present. GEO <geo_file> <h_corr> where 'h_corr' is orthometric height correction in meters. HVU: Horizontal and Vertical Units (meters) TND: Survey time and date in UTC. DEV 0: Indicates that the lines with device designation 0 are lines from a Communications Systems International (CSI), Inc. LGBX Pro (DGPS) OFF 0: device offsets for device 0. Format of the value is OFF dn n1 n2 n3 n4 n5 n6 n7 where dn=device number; n1=starboard, port offsets where positive is starboard; n2=forward, aft offset where positive is forward; n3=height (antenna) or depth (transducer draft) offset - always positive; n4=yaw rotation angle where positive for clockwise rotation; n5=roll rotation angle where port side up is positive; n6=pitch rotation angle where bow up is positive; n7=device latency in seconds. No offset for device 0 during this data collection. DEV 1: Indicates that the lines with device designation 1 are lines of RTK data acquired with the Novatel DLV3 (dual frequency) receiver. OFF 1: device offsets, where antenna height is 4.47 meters DEV 2: Indicates that the lines with device designation 3 are lines of DGPS data acquired with an Ashtech Z-extreme (dual frequency) receiver. OFF 2: device offsets, where antenna height is 4.47 meters DEV 3: Indicates that the lines with device designation 2 are lines of echosounder data acquired with a Garmin 5312 (single frequency) receiver. OFF 3: device offsets (none used during this data collection, used for boat steering only) DEV 4: Disabled Octopus F180. LIN: planned line data follows in the format "LIN nw" where nw=number of waypoints. PTS: planned line waypoints in the format "PTS x y" where x=waypoint easting; y=waypoint northing. ***In this case, easting and northing UTM zone 19N, meters. LBP: planned line begin point in the format "LBP x y" where x=x grid position; y=y grid position. In this case ***easting and northing, UTM Zone 19N, meters. LNN X: planned line name where X is the line name EOL: end of planned line EOH: end of header
The remaining elements have similar information in the first 3 columns. The first column will indicate the data type, the second column will indicate the device that recorded the information (***0 for CSI LBGX Pro) and the third column is the time tag (seconds past midnight) that is also sometimes referred to as the latency. The remaining information on each line is specific to the data type.
POS: Position of the ship - in this case the antenna location - in the format "POS dn t x y" where dn=device number; t=time tag (seconds past midnight); x=easting; y=northing. On this cruise these values are in UTM, Zone 19, WGS 84. QUA: Position quality information in the format "QUA dn t n m h sat mode" where dn=device number; t=time tag (seconds past midnight); n=number of values to follow; m = 10 minus HDOP (horizontal dilution of precision); h=HDOP; sat=number of satellites; mode=GPS mode (NMEA 0183 standard values) where 2=Differential GPS fix. RAW: Position information in the format "RAW dn t n lat long alt utc" where dn=device number; t=time tag (seconds past midnight); n=number of values to follow; lat=raw latitude X 100; long=raw longitude X 100; alt=antenna altitude above ellipsoid (meters); utc=GPS time in the format HHMM. EC1: Echo Sounding (single frequency Garmin 5312) in the format "EC1 dn t rd" where dn=device number; t=time tag (seconds past midnight); rd=raw depth in meters. MSG: Message string in the format "MSG dn t message" where dn=device number; t=time tag (seconds past midnight); message is the message sent from the device. On this cruise, three different messages were sent from the DGPS: $GPGGA, $GPGLL and $SDDBT. These will be defined later. FIX: events marked manually by the user in the format "FIX dn t event_number" where dn=device number (typically 99 as there is no device for manual events); t=time tag (seconds past midnight); event_number=event number such as 1,2,3,4. The NMEA strings present in the HYPACK file are the $GPGGA, $GPGLL, $SDDPT and $SDBPT. These are defined as follows.
$GPGGA is GPS fix data in the format "$GPGGA, t, lat, lath, long, longh, q, sat, h, a, M, alt, M, t2, refcheck" where t=time in UTC in the format hhmmss.ss; lat=latitude in the format ddmm.mmmmmm; lath= N or S indicating the latitude hemisphere; long=longitude in the format dddmm.mmmmmm; longh=E or W indicating the longitude hemisphere; q=fix quality where 2 is a DGPS fix; sat=number of satellites; h=Horizontal Dilution of Precision (HDOP); a=Antenna altitude above mean sea level (geoid); M= units of antenna altitude in meters; alt=height of geoid above WGS 84 ellipsoid; M=units of geoidal height in meters; t2=time since last DGPS update; refcheck=DGPS reference station id and the checksum. Example: $GPGGA,180707,3835.9291,N,07509.0955,W,1,10,1.18,-6,M,,,,*0A UTC Time = 180707 Latitude = 3835.9291 N Longitude = 07509.0955 W Fix Quality = 1 Number of satellites = 10 HDOP = 1.18 relative accuracy of horizontal position Altitude = -6 meters above mean sea level Height of geoid above WGS 84 ellipsoid = not recorded Time since last update = not recorded Checksum = *0A.
$SDDBT is water depth below the transducer in the format "$SDDBT, depth, units (f=feet), depth, units (m=meters), depth, units (F=fathoms), *checksum" Example: $SDDBT,5.2,f,1.6,M,0.8,F*0E Depth in feet = 5.2 Depth in meters = 1.6 Depth in fathoms = 0.8 Checksum = *0E The definitions of the HYPACK strings were acquired from the HYPACK software manual available from: <http://www.hypack.com/>. The definitions of the NMEA strings were obtained from: <http://home.mira.net/~gnb/gps/nmea.html> and the SDDBT definition was obtained from: <http://www.eye4software.com/products/gpstoolkit/nmea/>
