Imagery, originally collected by NOAA for charting purposes, provides a fundamental framework for research and management activities along this part of the Massachusetts coastline, shows the composition and terrain of the seabed, and provides information on sediment transport and benthic habitat. Interpretive data layers were derived from multibeam echo-sounder and sidescan-sonar data collected in the vicinity of Woods Hole, a passage through the Elizabeth Islands, off Cape Cod, Massachusetts. In November 2007, bottom photographs, high-resolution seismic-reflection data, and Surficial sediment data were acquired as part of a ground-truth reconnaissance survey. Purpose: This data set includes the shot-point navigation for seismic-reflection data collected along 11 lines in the vicinity of Woods Hole, offshore Massachusetts. The seismic data were collected during USGS survey 07034, conducted November 14-19, 2007. This data set was acquired to ground-truth acoustic data collected during NOAA hydrographic survey H11077.

Logical_Consistency_Report: No additional checks for topological consistency were performed on this data. Completeness_Report: All available navigation along seismic acquisition lines collected during the RV Rafael cruise 07034 is included in this data set. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Navigation was by GPS; positional accuracy to less than 30 m. Quantitative_Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Assessment: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Explanation: The Chirp 512i was towed astern of the RV Rafael on the water surface. A Garmin GPS receiver was mounted on the center of the tow vehicle. GPS data were transmitted to the RV Rafael and input to data acquisition system. Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: High-resolution seismic-reflection data were collected during November 2007 aboard the Research Vessel Rafael. The seismic data were acquired digitally along 11 lines totaling approximately 12.6 km with an Edgetech SB-512i Chirp sub-bottom profiler (500 Hz - 12 kHz swept FM) at a 0.25-s fire rate, a 50-ms pulse length, and a 0.5 to 4.5 kHz sweep (swept frequency). These data were logged in the Edgetech raw format (JSF) using Edgetech Jstar acquisition software.

The parameters were set to extract and write the envelope trace data only.

Geographic coordinates converted to UTM zone 19 coordinates using Proj. Before saving all of these attributes in a text file, the data were filtered using AWK to save only unique shot point locations. In addition, separate text files with even shot intervals of 100 and 500 were saved.
