Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired in the eastern South Pacific Ocean during the Knorr expedition KN182-11 (2006)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2112 Multibeam Sonar system during Knorr expedition KN182-11 conducted in 2006 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Bernadette Sloyan). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Sidescan, Swath Bathymetry, 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 2.1. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Deep Winter Mixed Layer Region and Subantarctic and Polar Fronts.
