Faust Capel Basins Survey (GA-2436/ TAN0713) - Bathymetry grids

The remote Eastern frontiers project aimed to provide a geological and petroleum prospectivity assessement of the Faust Capel Basins. Funded through Australian Governement Initiatives (Energy Security Program). The Faust Capel Basins survey GA-2436/ TAN0713 was acquired by Geoscience Australia onboard the RV Tangaroa (operated by NIWA) from the 6th of October to the 22nd of November 2007. The geographic range stretched from Wellington to the Faust Capel Basins to Lord Howe Island and back to Wellington. Approximately 8,945 sailing km of multibeam bathymetry was acquired. The high resolution bathymetry data imaged seafloor features in unprecedented detail, revealing the effects of recent magmatic activity and fluid migration on the seafloor. It also produced a new image of a flat topped unexplored seamount. A member of the Lord Howe Rise seamount chain.This dataset is not to be used for navigational purposes.

东缘偏远区域项目旨在对福斯特-卡佩尔盆地（Faust Capel Basins）开展地质与油气远景评价。本项目由澳大利亚政府倡议的能源安全计划（Energy Security Program）资助。编号为GA-2436/TAN0713的福斯特-卡佩尔盆地勘探数据采集作业，由澳大利亚地球科学局（Geoscience Australia）委托由新西兰国家水与大气研究所（NIWA）运营的"坦加罗阿号"（RV Tangaroa）科考船，于2007年10月6日至11月22日期间完成。本次作业的地理覆盖范围为从惠灵顿出发，途经福斯特-卡佩尔盆地、豪勋爵岛（Lord Howe Island）后返回惠灵顿的海域。作业累计采集约8945航行公里的多波束水深数据。该高分辨率水深数据以空前精细的分辨率刻画了海底地貌特征，揭示了近期岩浆活动与流体运移对海底的影响；同时还获取了一座属于豪勋爵海隆（Lord Howe Rise）海山链的平顶未探测海山的高清影像。本数据集不得用于航海导航用途。
