Equipment
and
Technique |
We can process, display, and generate maps from
high-resolution multibeam data. We also have the capabilities to archive
our data on CD-ROM.
We use University of New Brunswick's Ocean Mapping Group software to process
multibeam data.
We use Interactive Visual Systems software to interactively fly through
color and/or black & white georeferenced seafloor images (sidescan and/or
bathymetry). With this software we can create oblique views, combine
backscatter and bathymetry into a single image, and quantitatively analyze
the images. In addition we can combine georeferenced data of different
resolution into a single or multiple images. We can combine multiband
satellite, USGS DEMs, Seasat altimetry, etc. with our own multibeam data
for overviews of any area of interest.
We use inhouse-developed procedures to generate hard-copy color and/or black
& white maps of the seafloor. All datasets are routinely exported to the
Branch Arc/Info GIS.
