This layer shows the location and basic information for offshore sampling activities. It contains information about the activities which are conducted at a location resulting in the collection of data and/or physical material. Links to scanned images of sample description sheets, core and borehole logs are provided (where available) for openly available sampling activities where terms of use are known. Sampling activities include boreholes, shallow cores, seabed grabs and dredges. There may be several activities carried out at a single location. In addition to the ACTIVITY_ID, samples are uniquely named using a degree square, a number within the square, an equipment code and equipment attempt number. An example would be +54-003/1201/VE/2 – this is the 2nd Vibrocore at survey station 1201 within degree square 54° to 55°N and 2° to 3°W.

Query parameters
The optional f parameter indicates the output format which the server shall provide as part of the response document. The default format is GeoJSON.
The optional lang parameter instructs the server return a response in a certain language, if supported. If the language is not among the available values, the Accept-Language header language will be used if it is supported. If the header is missing, the default server language is used. Note that providers may only support a single language (or often no language at all), that can be different from the server language. Language strings can be written in a complex (e.g. "fr-CA,fr;q=0.9,en-US;q=0.8,en;q=0.7"), simple (e.g. "de") or locale-like (e.g. "de-CH" or "fr_BE") fashion.
