Multibeam data were collected during RV Maria S. Merian cruise MSM66 (2017-07-22 to 2017-08-28). Multibeam sonar system was Kongsberg EM 712 multibeam echosounder. Data are processed with Caris HIPS, including sound velocity correction with SV data from CTDs, tidal correction with TPXO9_atlas_v5 (https://www.tpxo.net/global/tpxo9-atlas), and manual cleaning. The soundings are combined in daily files, the format is XYZ ASCII (<Lon> <Lat> <Depth in meters, positive up, relative to mean sea level>). Additional blockmedian grids have been computed with depth dependent cell size to visualize the data. These grids are not meant for scientific analysis or navigation, but for overview purposes only.
