British Oceanographic Data Centre record 1048Whittard_Canyon_Bathymetry_JC125 2025-02-11 publication 2023-02-03 creation 2023-04-14 revision EDMED7283 http://www.bodc.ac.uk/ Multibeam swath bathymetry data were collected with a hull-mounted Kongsberg EM120 and EM710 echosounder during RRS James Cook cruise JC125 (Chief Scientist Veerle Huvenne) from August-September 2015. The cruise was conducted to map Whittard Canyon, a deep ocean canyon in the Bay of Biscay, in order to obtain a better insight in the biodiversity patterns, benthic habitat distributions and sediment transport processes of submarine canyons. The data were edited using Caris HIPS software by Catherine Wardell and gridded at 50 m spacing (EM120) and 10 m (EM710) in a WGS84 UTM Zone 29N projection. The vertical datum of the data is matched to mean sea level (MSL). They were exported as longitude-latitude-depth triples. Funding was provided by the European Research Council to CodeMap (Grant No 258482) and the UK's Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) to MAREMAP.

Data managers quality assure submissions and assemble the metadata necessary for curation. Submissions (as received) are placed in a long-term accession and stored in triplicate across multiple sites. Appropriate data are transferred into a standard internal format with source variable names mapped to controlled vocabularies, documentation assembled, and metadata loaded into BODC databases. Access to these data is through direct request, the BODC website and through partner repositories such as SeaDataNet. Access control is attained by assigning a data policy to each set of data and this policy is used to administer access when data are requested. Discovery metadata is aligned with EU INSPIRE (through MEDIN) and SeaDataNet community standards. Data are converted to open community formats including Ocean Data View ASCII and SeaDataNet NetCDF, with data described using terms from the NERC vocabulary server. BODC submission agreements are documented on the BODC website and customer service is assured with a dedicated requests team that serve data following local regulations including General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018 and Environmental Information Regulations (EIR) 2004. true This dataset was created by the organisations with the "originator" role in this metadata record following their in-house data processing and quality control procedures. The data were then provided to the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC), who ingested the data into the National Oceanography Database (NODB). The data were also transformed into a format suitable for submission to the EMODnet Bathymetry High Resolution Seabed Mapping community. Both versions of the data were subsequently published via DOI.Instrument(s) used to collect data: multi-beam echosounders.
