Comma separated value (CSV) text file of post-processed kinematic (PPK) data calculated from raw data logged on two Spectra Precision SP80 GNSS receivers during survey 2016-030-FA conducted offshore Sandwich Beach, MA by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2016

The objectives of the survey were to provide bathymetric and sidescan sonar data for sediment transport studies and coastal change model development for ongoing studies of nearshore coastal dynamics along Sandwich Town Neck Beach, MA. Data collection equipment used for this investigation are mounted on an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) uniquely adapted from a commercially sold gas-powered kayak and termed the "jetyak". The jetyak design is the result of a collaborative effort between USGS and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) scientists.
