Tran2new Backscatter:Acoustic, Bathymetry:Swath, Sidescan
Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired near the Cascadia Subduction Zone during the Ocean Alert expedition Tran2new (1998)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM300 Multibeam Sonar system during Ocean Alert expedition Tran2new conducted in 1998 (Chief Scientist: Dr. David Clague). 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 2.3.
