Metadata: 2009 Natural England Areas Surveyed with Multibeam
Abstract:
The data included in this file details hydrographic survey extents for contracts which were commissioned by Natural England. For surveyed areas, polygon areas represent actual extents of survey data gathered, for planned surveys the general extent of the area is shown

Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 3202 |
Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2009 Natural England Areas Surveyed with Multibeam |
File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 478f8cfa78b0ebbde8d4fb471dcf957c |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | NETGAIN0032 |
Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2005-01-01 |
End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2008-12-31 |
Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | notPlanned |
Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | The data included in this file details hydrographic survey extents for contracts which were commissioned by Natural England. For surveyed areas, polygon areas represent actual extents of survey data gathered, for planned surveys the general extent of the area is shown |
Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The polygons represent the extents of areas where survey data was obtained by the hydrographic survey contractor which undertook the survey. Polygons were created from analysing the bathymetric product delivered by the contractor. This process was undertaken by Natural England (NE). NE staff then created and populated an attribute table with the following attributes: HI_Name - Hydrographic Instruction name. A "Hydrographic Instruction" (HI) is the MCA job-specific specification which is given to the contractor and which defines the area-specific requirements for a particular hydrographic survey. The HI supplements a more generic contract specification. This field has not been completed by NE as this relates to MCA filing systems HI_Number - A unique HI reference number which is used internally by the MCA and UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO). HI numbers are assigned by the UKHO. Contract - The NE contract under which this work was undertaken Contractor - The NE contractor which undertook the work Standard - The overall standard to which the survey data was gathered. This has not been completed by NE. Start_Date - The day which the contractor started offshore operations on the polygon area. End_Date - The day which the contractor completed offshore operations on the polygon area. FY_Comissi - The financial year (April 1st to March 31st) in which the survey work was first comissioned. Status - Flag to indicate whether the survey has been completed (Surveyed) or is planned for the future (Planned) Area_KmSq - The total area of the polygon (in WGS UTM 30N) |
