AT03-03 Backscatter:Acoustic, Bathymetry:Swath, Sidescan
Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge during the Atlantis expedition AT03-03 (1997)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2100 Multibeam Sonar system during Atlantis expedition AT03-03 conducted in 1997 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Robert Vrijenhoek). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Sidescan, Acoustic Backscatter, and Swath Bathymetry data and were processed by the GMRT Team using the open source MB-System multibeam sonar processing software as part of the GMRT Synthesis effort. These data are included in the GMRT Synthesis, version 2.0. Funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE96-33131.
