Swath sonar bathymetry during POLARSTERN cruise ANT-XIX/1 (PS61) with links to multibeam raw data files

Multibeam data were measured during R/V Polarstern cruise ANT-XIX/1 on track lines of about 5,200 NM total length in the Atlantic Ocean during the transit from Bremerhaven to Cape Town. The multibeam sonar system Hydrosweep DS-2 was operated using 59 beams and 90° aperture angle. The refraction corr...

Description
Summary:Multibeam data were measured during R/V Polarstern cruise ANT-XIX/1 on track lines of about 5,200 NM total length in the Atlantic Ocean during the transit from Bremerhaven to Cape Town. The multibeam sonar system Hydrosweep DS-2 was operated using 59 beams and 90° aperture angle. The refraction correction was achieved utilizing the system's own cross fan calibration. The quality of data might be reduced during bad weather periods. The dataset contains raw data that are not processed and thus may contain errors and blunders in depth and position.
