***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0183293 Created on: 2023-04-07 02:19:11 UTC By: National Centers for Environmental Information Source: New or updated still imagery data files were submitted to NCEI by NOAA Ocean Exploration. Version: 2.2 Updates received on: 2019-12-24 Actions: Updates were received for this dataset. These updates were copied into the data/0-data/ directory of this accession. These updates may provide additional files or replace obsolete files. This version contains the most complete and up-to-date representation of this archival information package. All of the files received prior to this update are available in the preceding version of this accession. An automated process copied the still imagery data files to the 0-data directory of this accession. Note: This version of this accession was created to add the files as described above. All of the non-imagery files from the previous version are included in this version and additional information about these files is available below. Files: about/ This directory contains files generated by NCEI with ancillary information about the data submission. 0183293_lonlat.txt - Contains sample locations for these data. Each row contains the geographical position where these data were collected (longitude in the left column and latitude in the right column, both in degrees). NCEI may have corrected geographic positions that seemed to be in error when generating this file. However, NCEI did not change the original data files under the directory data/0-data/. 0183293_map.jpg - Sample location map for these data. data/0-data/ This directory contains the data files as submitted to NCEI. data/1-data/ This directory contains files that were converted by NCEI from their originally submitted format under the 0-data/ directory to an archival format. See below for additional details. The following is a summary of the differences between the data files in the previous version of this accession and this version: Total number of files: 8847 Number of new files: 132 Number of changed files: 0 Number of files removed: 0 Number of files moved or renamed: 0 ***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0183293 Created on: 2018-12-13 18:42:10 UTC By: Denise Gordon, National Centers for Environmental Information Source: The NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) assembled these data collected during the "EX1811: Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands (ROV & Mapping)" expedition. The collection was sponsored by the NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research (OER). Files: about/ This directory contains files generated by NCEI with ancillary information about the data submission. 0183293_lonlat.txt - Station locations for these data. Each row contains the geographical position for a station (longitude in the left column and latitude in the right column, both in degrees). 0183293_map.jpg - Sample location map for these data. about/metadata/ This directory contains ISO standard metadata records created by NCEI in XML format. data/0-data/ This directory contains the data and information files as submitted to NCEI. data/0-data/submersible/ This directory contains all the data and information files that were collected on the NOAA Ship OKEANOS EXPLORER's ROV Deep Discoverer and SEIRIOS Camera Sled, and includes Submersible Ancillary Data (ROV Ancillary files), Submersible Multimedia Data (Event Logs), Submersible Sensor Raw Data (CTD and VEHICLES), and Submersible Specimen Data. data/0-data/vessel/ This directory contains all the data and information files that were collected on the NOAA Ship OKEANOS EXPLORER, and includes Ship Navigation; Ship Sensor Raw Data (SCS Data - Sound Velocity, Thermosalinograph, Wind) (Profile Data - asvp, XBT); Multibeam and Singlebeam Bathymetric Data. data/1-data/ This directory contains the post-mission processed CTD data. These files were converted by NCEI from their originally submitted format under the 0-data/ directory to an archival format. Data was converted and bin averaged using the Sea-Bird software, and Python scripts were used to merge, split, and thin data files as needed. Additionally, headers for some SCS serial sensor files were corrected. In some cases an outdated configuration file was used to generate the headers which did not account for possible SCS system patches. In those cases the beginning and ending character positions for the serial sensor values were "off" by 1 or 2 which potentially would confuse any software which relies on those character positions. submersible/Submersible_Sensor_Raw_Data/Profile_Data/CPCTD *.cnv - These engineering units files were created from the *.hex files in the 0-data/ directory using Sea-Bird V 7.21g software. Some raw CTDs from submersibles consist of the descent, bottom, and ascent in one file. The CTD is processed with the Sea-Bird software into a .cnv file. This file is split into three files so that the descent, bottom, and ascent are in separate files, with the identifiers _D, _B, and _A added to the file name. The split files are then bin averaged to one meter using the Sea-Bird software. The directory structure was maintained and bin_avg was appended to the basename separated by an underscore (_). submersible/Submersible_Sensor_Raw_Data/Profile_Data/ROVCTD *.cnv - These engineering units files were created from the *.hex files in the 0-data/ directory using Sea-Bird V 7.21g software.
