AT11-32 Backscatter:Acoustic, Bathymetry:Swath, Sidescan
Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired in the Cascadia Focus Site during the Atlantis expedition AT11-32 (2005)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2112 Multibeam Sonar system during Atlantis expedition AT11-32 conducted in 2005 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Kier Becker). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Acoustic Backscatter, Sidescan, 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 2.1. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Hydrogeological Architecture of Basaltic Ocean Crust: IODP CORK Experiments, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE04-00471 and MCB04-34461.
