Continuous Marine Seismic-Reflection Surveys and Derived Depth-to-Bedrock Point Data from the East River, New York City, New York
June 21, 2023
This data release contains data from five seismic-reflection surveys in New York’s East River between Governors Island and the Queensboro Bridge. Data are provided in the original proprietary data format, a SEGy data exchange format, and as a shape file of locations and depths to bedrock. Depths to bedrock were derived from the seismic signal travel time and an assumed speed of sound of 5,000 feet/second.
