Equipment Used

|
|
Purpose
|
The ship will be acquiring multibeam bathymetry and
backscatter datasets to update nautical charts. USGS participation
facilitates eventual acquisition of these datasets for geological
seafloor mapping applications.
|
|
|
Summary
|
One bathymetric survey was completed; two other surveys were
partially completed.
|
|
|
Notes
|
12 days at sea.
Data types: Multibeam bathymetry
sidescan sonar
Navigation technique: dgps
Although no USGS data were generated during this cruise,
grids and imagery will eventually be obtained when data processing
is complete.

Got Help?
|
For 08039, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, information to be derived, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, publications, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, tabulated info.
