Processed Acoustic Backscatter and Swath Bathymetry Data acquired during R/V Falkor expedition FK150117 (2015)


Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
This data set was acquired with a Kongsberg Maritime EM302 Multibeam Sonar during R/V Falkor expedition FK150117 conducted in 2015 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Amy Waterhouse). These data files are of MBSystem-compatible format and include Acoustic Backscatter and Swath Bathymetry data that were processed after acquisition. This data was quality controlled by Mollie Celnick of the MGDS Team for inclusion in the Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) Synthesis (version 3.4).
