Progress Code: completed Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned Statement: Original field data. Data was loaded into Caris and swath edited prior to gridding and subset editing. Gridding was performed using swath angle determination, to reduce smoothing. No tidal corrections were applied. Processing was undertaken from Apr 2014 to May 2014 with some additional cleaning in Dec 2014. Multibeam echosounder data collected on Southern Surveyor voyage SS2011_V02 using the Simrad EM300 multibeam echosounder to acquire high resolution seafloor bathymetry and backscatter information. This voyage took place in the Southern Ocean during May-June 2011. Ping rate varied according to depth. Data are stored in Simrad *.all raw format at CMAR and Geoscience Australia (GA). There are 235 files totalling 2.2 GB of raw data in this dataset. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the cruise report for this voyage and/or the data processing report (as available). Sound velocity profiles have been applied using CTD data from the voyage. No tidal corrections were applied.
