Foreword The MCA are mindful of the part we have to play in the hydrographic sector, and the responsibility we carry for facilitating relationships between those who gather the data, and those who want to use it. Over the past decade or so, despite reductions in public spending, effective, genuine collaborations and partnerships have been established between data gathering programmes, and public-sector organisations, govt. departments, and with research and industry partners. As a result, hydrographic data and marine geospatial products are increasingly considered valuable, especially when married with modern survey standards and emerging acquisition technologies.

The usefulness of hydrographic data for wider, non-safety related uses particularly across Government has contributed towards development of improved products, collaboration and inter-operability capabilities and provided better value for all. The MCA liaises closely with industry, research institutions and business stakeholders to assess and review marine innovation and emerging hydrographic technologies, and advances in data processing and visualization. The MCA are well positioned to take advantage of these developments and envisage being able to leverage potential efficiencies in the future to provide high quality data and improve maritime safety and the marine environment.

Introduction As an Executive Agency of the Department for Transport (DfT), the Maritime & Coastguard Agency (MCA) plays a unique role within Government in discharging statutory hydrographic obligations under the United Nations’ Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Convention. Working in association with the UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO), the MCA funds and delivers the UK Civil Hydrography Programme (CHP), which delivers these SOLAS obligations to reduce the number of maritime incidents, the associated potential for loss of life, vessels, equipment and damage to the marine environment caused from polluting incidents at sea.

The CHP prioritises areas of highest

navigational safety risk and surveys and maps

UK home waters - defined by the boundaries of

the UK’s Exclusive Economic Zone, an area in

excess of 720,000km2 - in order to keep our

nation’s nautical charts and publications

current, safe and fit for purpose.

The CHP makes extensive use of geographic

information systems (GIS) to prioritise survey

areas using a contemporary risk analysis

methodology capable of reflecting the changing

pressures of the maritime sector.

The hydrographic survey work commissioned

for the CHP is undertaken by contractors, who

gather and report seabed data using their own

personnel, equipment and vessels. The core

CHP work scope has been divided into the

following streams:

• Routine resurvey - navigationally critical

shallow water areas with mobile seabed;

• Shallow water - predominantly 0 to 40m

water depth; and

• Shallow to medium water - 0 to 200m

water depth.

To support the requirements of the CHP, the

MCA specifies state-of-the-art survey

technologies including high resolution

multibeam echosounders (MBES) and Real-

Time Kinematic (RTK) Global Positioning

Systems (GPS) to ensure accurate high quality

hydrographic information is gathered.

Additionally, more focused work includes high-

resolution wreck investigations, water column

data collection and seabed grab sampling.

Prior to final data being accepted from

contractors, it passes through a rigorous quality

assurance process at the UKHO’s Bathymetry

Scientific Analysis Group, where checks are

made against items such as data density,

interline consistency, geodetic parameters and

tidal observations. Once data has passed

validation, it is archived to the UKHO’s

bathymetric database ready for inclusion in

their nautical charting products.

The UKHO hosts the Marine Environment Data and Information Network (MEDIN) Data Archive Centre (DAC) for bathymetry data. Bathymetry data collected through the CHP are made freely available to visualise and download from https://www.gov.uk/guidance/inspire-portal-and-medin-bathymetry-data-archive-centre The British Geological Survey hosts the MEDIN DAC for geology, geophysics and backscatter data. Backscatter data collected through the CHP are made freely available to visualise and download from http://www.bgs.ac.uk/GeoIndex/offshore.htm

The MCA regularly collaborate with other

public-sector organisations in order to increase

efficiencies under the ‘gather once, use many

times’ philosophy. The MCA have made the

CHP more accessible by:

• Sharing UK CHP Hydrographic Survey

Specification

• Making CHP data accessible via the

MEDIN bathymetry DAC and

backscatter DAC

• Providing British Geological Survey

CHP seabed samples for further

analysis

News from the CHP Hydrography and Meteorology

Team

The MCA Hydrography and Meteorology

(HydroMet) team comprises:

Hydrography and Meteorology Manager –

Andrew Colenutt

Hydrography and Meteorology Technical

Lead – Robert Kinnear

Hydrography and Meteorology Programmes

Lead – Paula English

Hydrography and Meteorology Programmes

Coordinator - Rebecca De Bono

The Navigation Safety Branch, led by Assistant

Director, André Cocuccio, comprises the

HydroMet team, Maritime Surveillance team,

Navigation Safety Policy team, and the Radio

Spectrum and Technical Standards team.

CHP Survey Contracts

Commencing in 2013, initially for a 3-year

period, commercial survey contracts were

awarded to deliver the CHP’s requirements in

order to improve maritime safety around the

British Isles by surveying UK waters for the

update of nautical charts and publications.

These contracts were extended for a further 2

years, and will be ending March 2018.

The current CHP work scopes have been

awarded to the following marine survey

contractors following a rigorous competitive

tendering exercise:

• Routine Resurvey: EGS International Ltd

• Shallow Water: Gardline Ltd

• Shallow to Medium Water: MMT (UK) Ltd

The MCA HydroMet team have prepared the

tender documents for the new round of CHP

contracts, which are due to commence in April

2018. As part of this process, elements of the

work scope relating to survey prioritization,

analysis and reporting have been revised to

maximize efficiencies and deliverables, and

provide best value for money. Working closely

with colleagues at the UKHO, the team have

also reviewed and updated the UK CHP Survey

Specification.

CHP 2017/18 surveys

In addition to delivering the full proposed

programme of high priority areas, the MCA

HydroMet team secured further funding for an

additional 2 high priority areas. In total, 13 CHP

surveys have been conducted during 2017/18,

covering approximately 5,400km2 of seabed:

HI 1334 North Coasts of Yell and Unst

HI 1498 Eastern Approach to Solent

HI 1501 Porthcawl to Barry

HI 1502 Gower Peninsular to Scarweather

Group)

The following surveys were also considered

under the auspices of the CHP:

HI 1542 Isle of Grain to Leysdown

(commissioned and funded by the Southeast

Regional Coastal Monitoring Programme)

HI 1543 Sunderland to Redcar (commissioned

and funded by the Northeast Regional Coastal

Monitoring Programme)

Civil Hydrography Annual Seminar 2018 The MCA annually convene the Civil

Hydrography Annual Seminar (CHAS). This

year’s event was hosted by the International

Maritime Organization, in London on 7th March.

CHAS is the only Government-led marine event

of its kind that opens its doors to the UK

hydrographic survey and seabed mapping

community.

The aims of CHAS are three-fold:

• To provide an open forum for public

sector organisations to come together

to share data gathering programmes for

the forthcoming years

• To encourage co-operative working and

survey planning integration

• To realise the financial benefits of co-

funding such work.

With over 85 attendees representing nearly 40

organisations, the event has proved as popular

and relevant as ever.

The MCA advocate a coordinated and

integrated approach to the longer-term survey

planning, which hopefully will enable the

hydrographic sector to manage funding

streams more effectively, develop new

partnerships and strengthen existing

collaborations between stakeholders.

Other key factors instrumental in advancing the

hydrographic sector and establishing efficient

ways of working include making high resolution

bathymetric data freely available under the

Open Government Licence and the stronger

adoption of the UK CHP Survey Specification.

In addition, there is a positive approach within

the sector for exchanging ideas and problem

solving in relation to data acquisition,

processing and interpretation.

Collaboration & Partnerships

Within the hydrographic community, effective, genuine collaborations have been established between public sector organisations, government departments and with research and industry partners. Sharing medium-term survey programmes and working together through partnerships and MOUs has enabled survey capability to be taken forward within and between organisations whilst maximising the leverage of public-funded survey assets and resources. A number of successful partnerships with the

MCA have arisen out of CHAS - most notably,

the EU-funded ‘INIS Hydro’ seabed mapping

project and with the National Network of

Regional Coastal Monitoring Programmes

(RCMPs) through close collaboration with the

Channel Coastal Observatory (CCO).

Regional Coastal Monitoring

Programmes

The Memorandum of Agreement to carry out

nearshore bathymetric surveys of the English

Coastline now has signatories from the

following Lead Authorities of the National

Network of Regional Coastal Monitoring

Programmes (RCMPs): New Forest District

Council (Southeast RCMP); Teignbridge

District Council (Southwest RCMP);

Metropolitan Borough of Sefton (Northwest

RCMP); and Scarborough Borough Council

(Northeast RCMP).

Under this MOA, all data gathered under these

RCMPs are made freely available under the

Open Government Licence; are collected

using the UK CHP Survey Specification; and

submitted under the UK Civil Hydrography

Programme to additionally support the update

of nautical charts and products by the UK

Hydrographic Office.

In 2017/18 the Southeast and Northeast

RCMPs commissioned and funded inshore

surveys extending inshore to a defined Mean

Low Water contour of the Isle of Grain to

Leysdown (north Kent) and Sunderland to

Redcar CHP survey area, respectively.

An agreement with the Vale of Glamorgan

Council (on behalf of the Swansea and

Carmarthen Bay Coastal Engineering Group)

is also being developed, which may be

expanded further to enable future

collaboration with the Welsh Coastal

Monitoring Programme.

MPA Evidence Gathering

Programme

Since 2013, CEFAS (Centre for Environment,

Fisheries and Aquaculture Science) under the

auspices of DEFRA (the Department for

Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) has

collected seabed mapping data to underpin

evidence gathering for marine protected area

designation.

The development of a joint MOA and adoption

of the UK CHP Survey Specification will

enable data gathered for environmental policy

making to also be suitable for the operational

update of nautical charts. This approach

ensures the potential for maximum data re-use

and in turn, reduced cost-burden to HM

Government.

Working in close partnership with the CCO,

RCMPs Lead Authorities, CEFAS and others,

realises cost savings and efficiencies by

combining resources, expertise and technical

advice to achieve surveys to IHO Order 1A in

areas of mutual interest. Further collaborative

surveys are scheduled in the forthcoming

years.

How the MCA gathers hydrographic data

Hydrographic survey is the process of gathering a wide variety of data for the purpose of describing

the seafloor. To ensure that data is collected to the highest possible quality for navigational charting,

the MCA specify the following requirements.

Standards Quality Assurance

All surveys are conducted to the IHO Order 1a

survey standard, as defined by the

International Hydrographic Organisation (IHO)

publication ‘Standards for Hydrographic

Surveys, Special Publication S44, Edition 5’,

with the exception of single-beam

echosounder (SBES) check lines under the

Routine Resurvey Programme.

Technical Requirements

Multibeam Echsounder (MBES)

• Multibeam bathymetry is collected during

all CHP surveys.

• The MCA usually require 100%

bathymetric coverage in all areas they

survey.

• System detection capability is defined by

IHO requirements. Contractors are

required to detect objects whose size is

greater than a cube measuring 2m3, in

water depths of up to 40m, and a cube with

sides equal to 10% of depth in deeper

waters.

• A minimum of 9 soundings per minimum

detectable object are required.

• Sound velocity measurements are

routinely taken throughout the survey in

order to position the soundings correctly.

• Contractors are often required to conduct

tidal-stream observations at particular

locations.

Data Quality Control

• In addition to QC procedures employed by

CHP survey contractors, technical

personnel from both the MCA and UKHO

routinely visit contractors’ vessels

throughout survey operations to verify data

quality.

• Prior to final survey data being accepted

from contractors, it passes through a

rigorous quality assurance process at the

UKHO, where checks are made for items

such as data density, inter-line

consistency, geodetic parameters, tidal

observations etc.

• Contractors are asked to provide error

budgets prior to and after every survey so

that the contribution of individual error

sources are tightly defined. This ensures

rigorous quality control of the final survey

dataset.

Additional Measurements

• Rigorous tidal reduction is required on all

CHP surveys.

• Depths are reduced to Chart Datum (CD).

• Seabed grab samples are typically taken

at 5km intervals to ground-truth multibeam

backscatter observations.

• MBES water column data is collected over

all found wrecks to support an assessment

of their condition and ensure shoalest

depth is found.

Propose a Survey Should you know or be aware of any areas of UK seabed that require update to the nautical charts

and publications that cover them, please let us know. The MCA assess CHP survey areas using a

contemporary risk-based methodology, but we are keen to receive any information that can aid us

in our responsibilities to the mariner and the safety of life at sea. E-mail your suggestions for

hydrographic survey to: [email protected]

Typical indications of an area requiring re-survey are:

• Old underlying survey data (check using the "Source Data Diagram" on the latest chart);

• A change in traffic patterns (e.g. increases in cruise ship visits);

• An accident occurring due to inaccurate or incomplete survey data; or

• Changes to the seabed due to sandwave movement / channel migration.

Survey SafetyMuch of the hydrographic work completed by the CHP is undertaken by contractors who are required

to gather seabed data using their own personnel, and vessels owned or chartered by themselves.

Acquired data is then submitted to both the MCA and UKHO.

I. Any vessel undertaking work on behalf of

the CHP must adhere to MCA safety and

regulatory guidelines. MCA safety

requirements include:

II. Contractors are required to supply and

adhere to a Safety Management Plan at all

times.

III. All offshore personnel are required to have

a valid medical certificate to at least the

ENG1 standard.

IV. All offshore personnel are required to have

appropriate and valid safety training

certification.

V. Every vessel that participates in CHP

survey operations is subject to approval by

the MCA (via MCA marine office

inspection) prior to work starting. Repeat

inspections are undertaken annually for the

duration of MCA contracts.

VI. Paris MoU. Should a vessel employed on

the CHP develop a high ship risk profile

(HRS), then the MCA reserves the right to

remove said vessel from the contract until

she meets ‘standard’ (SRS) or ‘low’ (LRS)

risk criteria.

VII. All vessels participating in CHP surveys

are visited by an MCA or a UKHO contract

overseer at least once every 2 months. A

report covering each visit is kept on file by

the MCA HydroMet team. Visits are

primarily intended to focus on the quality of

survey procedures and deliverables, but

also include an informal safety

assessment. If significant safety concerns

are raised, then the contract overseer is

required to notify the local MCA marine

office.

Hydrographic Notes

Reports of any newly discovered dangers to surface or sub-surface navigation are passed

immediately by the CHP contractors to the MCA and UKHO using the H102 Hydrographic Note form.

The nature of the CHP means that H-Notes are regularly sent in. This information is then immediately passed on to the mariner. During survey operations in 2017/18, over 130 H Notes were submitted.

Wreck Investigations All wrecks found in a CHP survey are investigated with additional lines and detailed bathymetry and water column data. Sitting proud of the seabed, wrecks and other man-made obstructions often form the critical depth in a given area of seabed. It is therefore crucial we have confidence that the shoalest point on these obstructions are found so the mariner can navigate safely.


11

Sharing Data with the MCA If you are considering performing a hydrographic survey and are willing to share your data with us,

we can pass it on to the UK Hydrographic Office to help them compile new or updated nautical charts

and so help improve safety for mariners.

Your survey does not need to be carried out to full charting standards to be of use. Even without a

full search for dangers, a modern survey can improve on our knowledge of the seabed. There will

be no legal liability on you for the way that we use your data.

The MCA are always happy to give help and advice on hydrographic data gathering requirements in

order to increase the usefulness of hydrographic survey data. Ideally bathymetry data would be

rendered and delivered in digital form, with:

• Data in one of the following: CARIS HDCS

directory (i.e. “HIPS”), Generic Sensor

Format, Fledermaus PFM or ASCII xyz

• Spurious data cleaned from the final,

delivered, dataset with rejected

soundings included, but flagged as

deleted

• Details of the method used for data-

cleaning

• Digital data as full density (i.e. prior to

any gridding or binning being applied),

though if gridded datasets have been

created then please include these too

• The soundings reduced using observed

tides (not predicted tides from Tide

Tables)

• Depths referenced to Chart Datum for the

area.

A report of the survey that describes how the

data was gathered and processed would be of

use, especially if it includes:

• A list of the equipment and software

used;

• How positioning equipment was set up,

calibrated and used;

• How the echo-sounder transducer was

set up and levelled, together with all

sensor offsets;

• Details of the horizontal datum to which

the positions are referred (or the grid, if

appropriate);

• How tides were measured, how the tide

pole or tide gauge was levelled and how

depths were reduced to chart datum.

Data which fully complies with all aspects of

IHO Order 1a would be ideal.

Guidelines for Offshore Developers

The MCA have issued guidelines which are

intended to aid developers when submitting

consent applications which impact upon

hydrography. These guidelines should be read

in conjunction with Marine Guidance Note

(MGN) 543 which replaces MGN 371. They are

available on the MCA pages on gov.uk.

The MGN 543 guidance note highlights issues

that need to be taken into consideration when

assessing the impact on navigational safety

and emergency response (search and rescue,

salvage and towing, and counter pollution)

caused by offshore renewable energy

installation developments. It applies to

proposals in United Kingdom internal waters,

Territorial Sea and Exclusive Economic Zone.

Survey Requirements

All hydrographic surveys should provide full

seafloor coverage that meets the requirements

of the IHO Order 1a survey standard. Particular

attention should be given to horizontal and

vertical sounding accuracy, together with target

detection requirements and, we would request

that all data and reports are passed on to the

UKHO for the update of the UK’s nautical charts

and publications.

MGN 543: Hydrography

In order to establish a baseline, confirm the safe

navigable depth, monitor seabed mobility and

to identify underwater hazards, detailed and

accurate hydrographic surveys are required of

the development at the following stages:

Pre-consent: The site and its immediate

environs extending to 500m outside of the

development area shall be undertaken as part

of the licence and/or consent application. The

survey shall include all proposed cable route(s).

Post-construction: Cable route(s).

Post-decommissioning of all or part of the

development: Cable route(s) and the area

extending to 500m from the installed generating

assets area.

Any additional hydrographic survey undertaken

for any other purposes should be carried out to

the standard described in section 6.c.

The development may result in an alteration to

maritime traffic patterns as vessels seek

alternative passage around the installed

generating assets area. Where this is the case,

it may be considered necessary that a

hydrographic survey of these alternate

passages and their immediate environs

extending to 500m be undertaken. MCA can

provide guidance here if required.

All hydrographic surveys listed above should

fulfil the requirements of the MCA’s

‘Hydrography Guidelines for Offshore

Developers’ and ‘Post-Construction

Hydrographic Guidelines for Offshore

Developers’, which are both available on the

MCA website.

Where to Deliver

On completion of each survey, the bathymetric

data and associated report of survey should be

delivered to the MCA. The MCA is responsible

for collecting and supplying data to the UKHO

to update nautical charts and publications for

the purposes of navigation safety. The

commercial sensitivity of your data will be

respected at all times.
