Description:
Swath sonar bathymetry data used for that dataset was recorded during RV SONNE during cruise SO276 using Kongsberg EM 122 multibeam echosounder. The cruise took place between 22.06.2020 - 26.07.2020 in the Atlanic Ocean. Data were recorded throughout the whole time spend outside EEZs. The approximate average depth of the entire dataset is around 4000m. To enhance MBES data accuracy, sound velocity profile casts were conducted in the vicinity of the working area prior to the survey using CTD rosette. During transits, sound velocity profile from the WOA13 were aplied via Sound Speed Manager Software. After processing, these data were directly imported into the MBES Acquisition software Kongsberg SIS Seafloor Information System. Data were manually edited for false measurements using Qimera. Raster were calculated and stored in GeoTIFF format with a 100m resolution (negative values), WGS85 as vertical datum and UTM as a projection, both for EM122 & EM710. Data products include ungridded soundings and bathymetric grids (100 m resolution) of the entire cruise for each EM122 & EM710. The data processing and provision was accomplished within work package 2 of the EU Horizon 2020 project iAtlantic- Integrated Assessment of Atlantic Marine Ecosystem in Space and Time and the IceAge project.
