Description:
Abstract:
cr_era4 is a compilation of hydrographic sounding data and shoreline data collected between 1995 and 2000 around the Columbia River, USA. Individual surveys included in this combined data set include: CR98LB, CR99LB, CR00CP, CR2000_dispo, CR2000_entra, CPS_99_CP, CPS_99_LB, AHW_CP_1995, AHW_LB_1995, NJ_1995, North_Head, and SJ_1995 .

This data set was used in the sediment budget analysis for the Columbia River littoral cell (Buijsman, et al. 2002) Horizontal datum is Washington State Plane South Fipzone 4602 meters. Attributes inlcude easting, northing, depth-navd(m), depth-mllw(m), and original survey name.

NOTE: CR2000_dispo and CR2000_entra were incorrectly converted from feet to meters, MLLW. Errors range from 0 to 0.06 meters. Use version cr_era4_cor with corrected surveys MCR00_dispo and MCR00_entra for future analyses.

Purpose:
This data set is intended for use as an historical bathymetric data set for scientific research. It is not intended for navigational use. The data were originally used for bathymetric change and sediment budget analysis as part of the Southwest Washington Coastal Erosion Study (SWCES), a cooperative study by the US Geological Survey and the Washington State Department of Ecology.
Supplemental_Information:
The SWCES was initiated to examine coastal geology, processes, and natural hazards within the Columbia River littoral cell. The study is jointly directed by the U.S. Geological Survey Coastal and Marine Geology Program and the Washington State Department of Ecology Shorelands and Environmental Assistance Program, with active participation of local communities in Pacific and Grays Harbor counties.

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
The data have been thoroughly analyzed for for gross inaccuracies. A discussion of errors and accuracies associated with the original data collection methodologies can be found in Gibbs and Gelfenbaum (1999). Water depths have been modified as discussed in Buijsman et al. (2002)
Completeness_Report: The data set is considered complete.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Horizontal accuracies for NOS surveys vary by water depth and distance from shore (see Gibbs and Gelfenbaum, 1999).
