usSEABED data format and content Completed
The USGS data release for the usSEABED database enables search and download of six interlinked files of output data and a seventh file that provides linked information about the original data sources. These files can be downloaded in their entirety and are also searchable through an online interface that allows for search and selection either through a GIS display or through a web form. Both options query and export selected portions of the usSEABED database.
Data source information
Information about the original data is in the source file:
- US9_SRC: Information about the original source data incorporated into the usSEABED database , including authors, institution, dates of collection, area, and navigation technique
Textural and other basic information
Textural, statistical, geochemical, geophysical, dominant component, and color data are available in three data files, which represent the three ways the data were obtained, as well as in a fourth data file that combines the information from the three data textural files:
- US9_EXT: Extracted information about grain size, sediment texture, color, age, and other information about the sea floor derived from quantitative observations and analyses of samples
- US9_PRS: Parsed information about grain size, sediment texture, color, age, and other information about the sea floor derived from written descriptions from cores, grabs, photographs, and videos
- US9_CLC: Calculated information about grain size, sediment texture, color, age, and other information about the sea floor derived from calculations based on empirical relations or known functions performed by dbSEABED software
- US9_ONE: Combined information including extracted, parsed, and calculated information about grain size, sediment texture, color, age, and other information about the sea floor derived from quantitative observations and analyses of samples (extracted); information, from written descriptions from cores, grabs, photographs, and videos (parsed); and information from calculations based on empirical relations or known functions performed by dbSEABED software (calculated)
Component, feature, and facies data
Two data files contain mined numeric values derived from word-based data about presence of certain compositional content (quartz, andesite, benthic foramifera, nodules, etc.) seafloor features (ripples, bioturbation, worm tubes), biota, and sediment structure. These data represent the types of data most recorded in reports:
- US9_FAC: Concatenated information about components (minerals and rock type), genesis (igneous, metamorphic, carbonate, terrigenous), and other appropriate groupings of information about the sea floor parsed from written descriptions of cores, grabs, photographs, and videos
- US9_CMP: Numerical data about selected components (for example, minerals, rock type, microfossils, and benthic biota) and sea-floor features (for example, bioturbation, structure, and ripples) at a given site; values in the attribute fields are measures of membership in that attribute’s fuzzy set
The dbSEABED program acts on, and usSEABED data files record, only data that are noted by the original researcher. That is, many other instances of 'shells', 'bioturbation', 'kelp', 'coral', or 'brittlestar' undoubtedly exist on the seabed; but, if the original researcher was not interested and did not note them, this process cannot assess them. Users of these data should be aware that only relative presence of components and features can be suggested; absence should not be assumed.
As with the parsed data files, the values held within the US9_CMP and US9_FAC files are the results of filters based on fuzzy set membership to chosen sets, and represent a measure of truth about the attribute, not a percentage or defined values.

usSEABED data format and content
dbSEABED: Data processing and mining
Parsing in dbSEABED
- Overview
The USGS data release for the usSEABED database enables search and download of six interlinked files of output data and a seventh file that provides linked information about the original data sources. These files can be downloaded in their entirety and are also searchable through an online interface that allows for search and selection either through a GIS display or through a web form. Both options query and export selected portions of the usSEABED database.
Data source information
Information about the original data is in the source file:
- US9_SRC: Information about the original source data incorporated into the usSEABED database , including authors, institution, dates of collection, area, and navigation technique
Textural and other basic information
Textural, statistical, geochemical, geophysical, dominant component, and color data are available in three data files, which represent the three ways the data were obtained, as well as in a fourth data file that combines the information from the three data textural files:
- US9_EXT: Extracted information about grain size, sediment texture, color, age, and other information about the sea floor derived from quantitative observations and analyses of samples
- US9_PRS: Parsed information about grain size, sediment texture, color, age, and other information about the sea floor derived from written descriptions from cores, grabs, photographs, and videos
- US9_CLC: Calculated information about grain size, sediment texture, color, age, and other information about the sea floor derived from calculations based on empirical relations or known functions performed by dbSEABED software
- US9_ONE: Combined information including extracted, parsed, and calculated information about grain size, sediment texture, color, age, and other information about the sea floor derived from quantitative observations and analyses of samples (extracted); information, from written descriptions from cores, grabs, photographs, and videos (parsed); and information from calculations based on empirical relations or known functions performed by dbSEABED software (calculated)
Component, feature, and facies data
Two data files contain mined numeric values derived from word-based data about presence of certain compositional content (quartz, andesite, benthic foramifera, nodules, etc.) seafloor features (ripples, bioturbation, worm tubes), biota, and sediment structure. These data represent the types of data most recorded in reports:
- US9_FAC: Concatenated information about components (minerals and rock type), genesis (igneous, metamorphic, carbonate, terrigenous), and other appropriate groupings of information about the sea floor parsed from written descriptions of cores, grabs, photographs, and videos
- US9_CMP: Numerical data about selected components (for example, minerals, rock type, microfossils, and benthic biota) and sea-floor features (for example, bioturbation, structure, and ripples) at a given site; values in the attribute fields are measures of membership in that attribute’s fuzzy set
The dbSEABED program acts on, and usSEABED data files record, only data that are noted by the original researcher. That is, many other instances of 'shells', 'bioturbation', 'kelp', 'coral', or 'brittlestar' undoubtedly exist on the seabed; but, if the original researcher was not interested and did not note them, this process cannot assess them. Users of these data should be aware that only relative presence of components and features can be suggested; absence should not be assumed.
As with the parsed data files, the values held within the US9_CMP and US9_FAC files are the results of filters based on fuzzy set membership to chosen sets, and represent a measure of truth about the attribute, not a percentage or defined values.

usSEABED
usSEABED is the collaborative product of the U.S. Geological Survey, the University of Colorado, and other partners, and provides integrated data from small and large marine research efforts by many entities—federal and state agencies, local authorities, universities, as well as private and public consortiums.Accessing usSEABED
Since the second half of the 20th century, there has been an increase in scientific interest, research effort, and information gathered on the geologic sedimentary character of the continental margins of the United States. Data and information from thousands of sources have increased our scientific understanding of the geologic origins of the margin surface, but rarely have those data been...usSEABED data format and content
The USGS data release for the usSEABED database enables search and download of six interlinked files of output data and a seventh file that provides linked information about the original data sources. These files can be downloaded in their entirety and are also searchable through an online interface that allows for search and selection either through a GIS display or through a web form. Both...dbSEABED: Data processing and mining
At the core of usSEABED is dbSEABED, a data-mining program based on the application of fuzzy set theory to marine geological and biological data. Fuzzy set theory allows expansion of coverage of the seafloor by the use of word-based data from core logs, sample descriptions, photos, and videos, as well as the more standard numeric data from a laboratory.Parsing in dbSEABED
Numeric data mined from verbal logs, core or grab descriptions, shipboard notes, and photographic descriptions are classified as “parsed” data. Input data are maintained using the terms employed by the original researchers and are coded using phonetically sensible terms for easier processing by dbSEABED .
