Archive of Digitized Analog Boomer Seismic Reflection Data Collected from the Mississippi-Alabama-Florida shelf During Cruises Onboard the R/V Kit Jones, June 1990 and July 1991

In June of 1990 and July of 1991, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted geophysical surveys to investigate the shallow geologic framework of the Mississippi-Alabama-Florida shelf in the northern Gulf of Mexico, from Mississippi Sound to the Florida Panhandle. Work was done onboard the Mississippi Mineral Resources Institute R/V Kit Jones as part of a project to study coastal erosion and offshore sand resources. This report is part of a series to digitally archive the legacy analog data collected from the Mississippi-Alabama SHelf (MASH). The MASH data rescue project is a cooperative effort by the USGS and the Minerals Management Service (MMS). This report serves as an archive of high-resolution scanned Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) and Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) images of the original boomer paper records, navigation files, trackline maps, Geographic Information System (GIS) files, cruise logs, and formal Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) metadata.

1990年6月与1991年7月，美国地质调查局（U.S. Geological Survey, USGS）开展地球物理勘探作业，以调查墨西哥湾北部密西西比-阿拉巴马-佛罗里达陆架（范围覆盖密西西比湾至佛罗里达狭长地带）的浅部地质构造。本次作业依托密西西比矿产资源研究所“基特·琼斯号”（R/V Kit Jones）考察船完成，属于海岸侵蚀与近海砂矿资源研究项目的组成部分。本报告是密西西比-阿拉巴马陆架（Mississippi-Alabama SHelf, MASH）遗留模拟数据数字化归档系列成果之一。MASH数据抢救项目由美国地质调查局与矿产管理局（Minerals Management Service, MMS）联合推进。本报告归档了原始boomer震源纸质记录、导航文件、测线地图、地理信息系统（Geographic Information System, GIS）文件、航次日志，以及正式的联邦地理数据委员会（Federal Geographic Data Committee, FGDC）元数据的高分辨率扫描版标记图像文件格式（Tagged Image File Format, TIFF）与图形交换格式（Graphics Interchange Format, GIF）图像。
