HLY-01-03 Backscatter:Acoustic, Bathymetry:Swath, Sidescan
Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired off the coast of Svalbard during the Healy expedition HLY-01-03 (2001)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2112 Multibeam Sonar system during Healy expedition HLY-01-03 conducted in 2001 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Bellingham). 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 2.2. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Atlantic Layer Tracking Experiment (ALTEX), and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OPP99-10290.
