Data types, collection and processing

Observation typeSedimentation and erosion processes
ParameterSedimentary structure
Instrument typemulti-beam echosounders
Instrument nameSimrad EM12D multibeam echosounder
Platform typeresearch vessel
Data quality processing informationThe bathymetric mosaic was obtained using a multibeam SIMRAD EM 12 swath bathymetry echosounder, with full coverage of the study area. This system transmitted 81 acoustic beams to the seafloor with a total beam angle of 90º, covering a sector of the seafloor whose width equals twice the water depth.The raw data were post-processed using the multibeam echosounder processing program "Neptune" developed by SIMRAD Systems.
