            <gco:CharacterString>McArthur II was acquired from the U.S. Navy in 2002 and was converted to a multiple-disciplinary platform capable of a broad range of missions. The ship conducted oceanographic research and assessments, throughout the eastern Pacific, including the U.S. West Coast, Central and South America. McArthur II was involved in studies in several of the National Marine Sanctuaries on the west coast of the United States. The 224-foot ship engaged in measurements of chemical, meteorological, and biological sampling for several large scale programs within NOAA.</gco:CharacterString>

                <gco:CharacterString>The Simrad EK60 Scientific Sounder system is a new generation fishery researchtool, based on experience from the EK500. The new electronic hardware is combined with up to date PC processing and Windows operation. The EK60 provides facilities for accurate echo sounding, data storage, data analysis and reporting results. The system communication is through Ethernet, which gives flexibility in the location of the EK60 system units and allows easy access to data from other instruments or stations on a vessel network. A post processing software, BI60, is also included in the EK60 system.</gco:CharacterString>

            <gco:CharacterString>The Phantom DHD2+2 is a 600m (2,000ft) rated ocean exploration remotely operated vehicle (ROV), and is part of NOAA's elite ROV fleet. The ROV is tethered to the ship and can conduct independent scientific investigation. The vehicle's depth, heading, and geographic position are also recorded and relayed through the cabling. The Phantom DHD2+2 has four thrusters that provide agile movement and total control. The ROV can be outfitted with multiple cameras on rigs, extra lighting, oceanographic sensors, GPS, compass, and additional instrumentation. The live video is relayed to the surface and shown on video monitors.</gco:CharacterString>

	"OER BEDI CRUISE LEVEL METADATA TEMPLATE", March 2026 - specifically for BEDI Cruises.

	This XML template for OER Cruise metadata conforms to  the ISO 19115-2:2009(E) geospatial metadata standard. 
  Example content is provided within this template and should be replaced with actual content for the data that are being documented. 
	Fields without comments and without brackets -{{example}}- contain default values. 
	The template matches the NCEI Template as much as possible.

	Authors:
	For further information about this template, please contact

				E-mail: OER.info.mgmt@noaa.gov

	Distribution Liability:
		NOAA makes no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding these data, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty. 
		NOAA cannot assume liability for any damages caused by any errors or omissions in these templates.

	Use Constraints:
		The user is responsible for the results of any application of these templates for other than its
		intended purpose. These templates cannot guarantee valid output. Additional editing
		may need to be done in order to have valid records.

	Revisions:
		2026-03-01 : Initial BEDI-specific cruise-level template (derived from OER NOFO template).
		2026-04-20 : BEDI fork aligned with OER_EX_Cruise_Level_Template_noDOI-20260420 (Jason: Data License Statement docucomp anchor 493b9ff1-4465-404d-bcdf-e0fe1cedb14f); no Okeanos-only acquisition/keyword blocks.
		2026-04-24 : Renamed vendored copy for Metadata Open Office hours; content matches 20260420 generator wiring (placeholders, fragments, acquisition via platform_snippets).
		2026-07-21 : Align BEDI collection output with current review notes: Data License Statement as a direct resourceConstraints component and inline MI_Platform snippets instead of platform docucomp xlinks.
		2026-07-22 : Restore platform docucomp xlinks per reviewer direction; keep collection instruments empty and preserve camera_code values as Provider Instruments keywords.
