Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired in the Atlantic Ocean during the Knorr expedition KN182-03 (2005)

This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2112 Multibeam Sonar system during Knorr expedition KN182-03 conducted in 2005 (Chief Scientist: Peter Lemmond). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Acoustic Backscatter, Swath Bathymetry, 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 2.2. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Hydroacoustic Monitoring of Seismicity in the North Atlantic, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE01-37164.

本数据集由搭载于科考船的SeaBeam 2112多波束声呐系统（SeaBeam 2112 Multibeam Sonar system）采集，数据获取工作开展于2005年执行的诺尔号（Knorr）考察航次KN182-03，本次航次首席科学家为Peter Lemmond。本次生成的数据文件格式为MBsystem格式，涵盖声学背散射（Acoustic Backscatter）、条带测深（Swath Bathymetry）与侧扫（Sidescan）数据；相关数据处理由GMRT团队作为GMRT综合项目（GMRT Synthesis）的组成部分，依托开源MB-System多波束声呐处理软件完成。本数据集被纳入GMRT综合数据集2.2版本。本次数据采集作为“北大西洋地震活动性水声监测”项目的一部分开展，相关资助由美国国家科学基金会（NSF）的OCE01-37164号研究项目提供。
