Archive of Digital Boomer and Chirp Seismic Reflection Data Collected During USGS Cruise 03SCC03 in Lake Pelto and Timbalier and Terrebonne Bays, Louisiana, September 2003
In September of 2003, the U.S. Geological Survey conducted geophysical surveys in Lake Pelto, Timbalier Bay, Terrebonne Bay, and nearby waterbodies offshore south-central Louisiana. This report serves as an archive of unprocessed digital boomer and chirp seismic reflection data, trackline maps, navigation files, GIS information, Field Activity Collection System (FACS) logs, observer's logbook, and formal FGDC metadata. Filtered and gained digital images of the seismic profiles are also provided.
The archived trace data are in standard Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) SEG-Y format (Barry and others, 1975) and may be downloaded and processed with commercial or public domain software such as Seismic Unix (SU). Example SU processing scripts and USGS software for viewing the SEG-Y files (Zihlman, 1992) are also provided.
For more information on the seismic surveys see http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/g/g103la/html/g-1-03-la.meta.html
These data are also available via GeoMapApp (http://www.geomapapp.org/) and Virtual Ocean ( http://www.virtualocean.org/) earth science exploration and visualization applications.
