Abstract:
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Atlas Hydrosweep DS Multibeam Sonar system during Maurice Ewing expedition EW9709 conducted in 1997 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Ted Moore). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Acoustic Backscatter, Swath Bathymetry, and Sidescan 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): A Paleogene Equatorial Pacific Transect, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE96-33802 and OCE96-34141.
