AbstractThis area was surveyed as part of the Irish National Seabed Survey (INSS) now called the Infomar project , a joint seabed mapping project between the Geological Survey of Ireland and the Marine Institute. The objective of the survey during this leg was to provide The Geological Survey of Ireland with Swathe Bathymetry, Sub-Bottom Profiling, Magnetometer and Gravity data within the northern sector of Zone 2, offshore Donegal. Also observed under the provisions of the Scope of Work were regular velocity of sound profile stations and daily weather reports. The R.V. Celtic Explorer was equipped with a Kongsberg Simrad EM1002 multibeam echosounder, hull mounted on the vessel and operating at a frequency of 95khz to an angular coverage of 75° on both port and starboard sides of the transducer. The primary positioning for this survey was via the Fugro Starfix-HP (High Precision) GPS positioning system. The multi beam echo sounder data were processed utilising CARIS HIPS and SIPS v5.3 SP1 multibeam processing software. Each survey line was tidally corrected using predicted tides derived from Polpred software from the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory. The Hydrographic component of this survey has been conducted to LINZ specifications for depth accuracy for Second order hydrographic surveys. Visit http://www.infomar.ie/ for more information.
