This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM122 Multibeam Sonar system during Marcus G. Langseth expedition MGL1002 conducted in 2010 (Chief Scientist: Dr. John Diebold). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Swath Bathymetry, Sidescan, and Acoustic Backscatter 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. Data were acquired while the Marcus G. Langseth was in transit.
