- Statement
- Data were collected during marine geophysical surveys. A variety of types of data (types of geophysical survey equipment) are available, including airgun, sparker, boomer, pinger, gravimeter, magnetometer, sidescan sonar and multibeam echosounder data. This dataset has been managed by BGS over a considerable period of time. Legacy paper records from earlier surveys were scanned and some have been transcribed to digital formats, with QC of the information captured and addition to the BGS database. Some hard-copy records have not yet been scanned. More recent data are captured digitally and loaded directly into the BGS database.
