Description: This includes seismic and side scan tracklines from 1985-2012. Research and processing method vary throughout the years: Seismic Tracks 1985 - Tracklines from seismic reflection profiles - Datasonics 3.5 kHz Ore Geopulse 280j. This work was associated with cooperative agreement 14-12-001-30316 between Maryland Geological Survey and the Bureau of Economic Geology University of Texas at Austin as agent for Branch of Geologic and Geophysical Studies Minerals Management Survice Reston, VA (Brooks, 1988).

Coastal and Estuarine Geology File Report #94-8 Seismic Tracks 1993 - Data was collected during an August 1993 survey, Datasonics acoustic profiling system 3.5 kHz. the Calcomp 9800 large format digitizer was used to enter seismic data into AutoCAD 12 DOS. Civil/Survey (Softdesk) within AutoCAD was used to generate the surface models. This method used TINS (triangular irregular networks), the most commonly employed method in 1993. The data is developed and generated under the Maryland Geological Survey/Delaward Geological Survey Cooperative agreement, a grant funded by the Minerals Management Service.

Data collected onboard the R.V. Discovery in August 1994. REFS: Conkwright R., and Gast R., October 1994, "Potential Offshore Sand Resources in Central Maryland Shoal Fields" Seismic Tracks 1995 - Datasonics acoustic profiling sisyem 3.5 kHz. the Calcomp 9800 large format digitizer was used to enter seismic data into AutoCAD 12 DOS.
