Abstract:
This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2000 Multibeam Sonar system during Melville expedition PANR05MV conducted in 1998 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Richard Hey). These data files are of MBSystem format and include 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 1. Funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE95-29737 and OCE99-06896.
