AA_Q19.TIF - Aleutian Arc U.S. EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (19 of 31) (LCC, 50 m, WGS84)

During late July through September 1987 and June and July 1988 the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted four cruises to cover the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) region of the Aleutian Arc. As in earlier EEZ reconnaissance surveys, the USGS utilized the GLORIA (Geological LOng-Range Inclined Asdic) sidescan-sonar system to complete the geologic mapping. The collected GLORIA data were processed and digitally mosaicked to produce continuous imagery of the seafloor. A total of 31 digital mosaics of a 3 degree by 3 degree (or smaller) area with a 50-meter pixel resolution were completed for the region.

1987年7月下旬至9月，以及1988年6、7月期间，美国地质调查局（U.S. Geological Survey，USGS）开展了四次科考航次，作业范围覆盖阿留申弧海域的美国专属经济区（Exclusive Economic Zone，EEZ）。与此前的EEZ普查工作一致，该局使用GLORIA（Geological LOng-Range Inclined Asdic，地质远程倾斜声学成像旁扫声呐）旁扫声呐系统完成地质填图。所采集的GLORIA数据经处理与数字镶嵌后，生成了连续的海底影像。该区域共完成31幅覆盖3°×3°（或更小）区域、像素分辨率为50米的数字镶嵌图。
