Mapping data acquisition and processing summary report: EX-18-06, Windows to the Deep 2018 (rov & mapping)

The purpose of this report is to briefly describe the acoustic seafloor and water column mapping data collection and processing methods used during exploration expedition EX-18-06, and to present a summary of the overall mapping results and mapping related cruise activities. A detailed description of the Okeanos Explorer’s mapping capabilities is available in the 2018 NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer Survey Readiness Report, available in the NOAA Central Library. A full description of Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) operations and sample collections completed during the cruise is available in a separate Expedition Report available in the NOAA Central Library with the title “Cruise Report EX-18-06 Windows to the Deep 2018 (ROV & Mapping).” 2020 Ocean Exploration Program OAR (Oceanic and Atmospheric Research) Submitted https://doi.org/10.25923/gz8b-4b03 Public Domain 1877
