Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired off the coast of Hawaii during the Kilo Moana expedition KM0629 (2006)

This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM120 Multibeam Sonar system during Kilo Moana expedition KM0629 conducted in 2006 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Zackary Johnson). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Sidescan, Acoustic Backscatter, and 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 2.2. Funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE05-26462.

本数据集采用船载康士伯（Kongsberg）EM120多波束声呐（Multibeam Sonar）系统采集，采集工作依托2006年执行的Kilo Moana航次KM0629完成，该航次的首席科学家为扎卡里·约翰逊（Zackary Johnson）博士。本数据集文件采用MBsystem格式，涵盖侧扫（Sidescan）数据、声学背散射（Acoustic Backscatter）数据与条带测深（Swath Bathymetry）数据，由GMRT团队借助开源MB-System多波束声呐处理软件完成处理，作为GMRT合成项目的组成部分。本次数据集已被纳入GMRT合成数据集2.2版本。本项目受美国国家科学基金会（NSF）资助，资助编号为OCE05-26462。
