Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired in the Pacific Ocean during the Thomas G. Thompson expedition TN261 (2011)

This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM302 Multibeam Sonar system during Thomas G. Thompson expedition TN261 conducted in 2011 (Chief Scientist: Dr. William Wilcock). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Swath Bathymetry, Acoustic Backscatter, 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 2.4. Data were acquired while the Thomas G. Thompson was in transit.

本数据集由2011年开展的托马斯·G·汤普森号（Thomas G. Thompson）TN261科考航次使用船载康斯伯格EM302多波束声呐系统（Kongsberg EM302 Multibeam Sonar system）采集，该航次首席科学家为威廉·威尔科克博士（Dr. William Wilcock）。本数据集文件采用MBsystem格式存储，包含条带测深数据（Swath Bathymetry）、声学背散射数据（Acoustic Backscatter）与侧扫数据（Sidescan data），由GMRT团队依托开源MB-System多波束声呐处理软件完成处理，作为GMRT合成项目（GMRT Synthesis）的组成部分。本数据集已被纳入GMRT合成项目2.4版，数据采集工作开展于托马斯·G·汤普森号的航行途中。
