NA097 Backscatter:Acoustic
Gridded, processed acoustic backscatter data (KMZ format) from Nautilus cruise NA097
The multibeam bathymetry data was collected with an EM302 swath system in 2018 during Nautilus cruise NA097 (chief scientist Tammy Norgard). The processed acoustic backscatter data was gridded at resolutions of between 5m and 16m and is indicated in the file name. The data files are in KMZ format and were generated as part of the NA097 Northeast Pacific Seamount Expedition project. Funding came from the Northeast Pacific Seamount Expedition Partners: Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Council of the Haida Nation, Ocean Networks Canada, Oceana Canada.
