Title: GeoTIFF image of the backscatter intensity of the sea floor of the Atlantic Beach artificial reef
Author: Bradford Butman, William W. Danforth, John E. Hughes Clarke, Richard P. Signell
Comments: The Atlantic Beach artificial reef, located on the sea floor 3 nautical miles south of Atlantic Beach, New York in about 20 meters water depth, was built to create habitat for marine life. The reef was originally created by placing heavy materials such as tires, automobile bodies and other vehicles, barges, and rock from a dredging project on the sea floor. In 2000, the U.S. Geological Survey surveyed the area using a Simrad EM1000 multibeam echosounder mounted on the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) ship Frederick G. Creed. The purpose of this multibeam survey, done in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers when the Creed was in the New York region in April 2000, was to map the bathymetry and backscatter intensity of the sea floor in the area of the Atlantic Beach artificial reef. The data from this survey are bathymetry, backscatter intensity, and navigation trackline.

Subject: The GeoTIFF image of backscatter intensity provides qualitative information on the sediment texture and roughness of the sea floor.
