Hydrographic survey data consists primarily of water depths but also includes features (rocks, wrecks, etc.), navigation aids, shoreline and some bottom type information. Such data can also be used for storm surge modeling and fish habitat studies and support a variety of maritime functions such as port and harbor maintenance, coastal engineering, and coastal zone management. The primary data associated with all hydrographic surveys is water depth. Primary depth measurements are made with multibeam echosounder sonar or with a single beam echosounder if multibeam systems are not available. Multibeam technology obtains hundreds more sounding per unit time than single beam systems and covers a wide swath of the ocean floor. Side scan sonar is used to supplement single beam and multibeam soundings by searching the region between regular sounding lines to assist in detecting objects that project from the sea floor. Once completed hydrographic survey data can be accessed through the National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC): http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/mggd.html The primary purpose of high-resolution multibeam bathymetry is to support safe navigation. However, it can also be valuable to a variety of other users including the coastal stewardship community, geologists, mathematical modelers and habitat researchers. planned OFFICE OF COAST SURVEY (OCS), HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEYS DIVISION, NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION (NOAA)NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE (NOS) DOC/NOAA/NOS/CSC > Coastal Services Center, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DATA CENTER CONTACT 301-713-2700 1315 East - West Highway - N/CS3 Silver Spring MD 20910 USA jerry.mills@noaa.gov http://www.csc.noaa.gov/ resourceProvider EARTH SCIENCE > TERRESTRIAL HYDROSPHERE > SURFACE WATER > WATER DEPTH EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > BATHYMETRY/SEAFLOOR TOPOGRAPHY > WATER DEPTH EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > BATHYMETRY/SEAFLOOR TOPOGRAPHY > SEAFLOOR TOPOGRAPHY EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > BATHYMETRY/SEAFLOOR TOPOGRAPHY > BATHYMETRY EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > COASTAL PROCESSES NASA/GCMD Earth Science Keywords Science Keywords 2008-02-05 revision Olsen, L.M., G.
