| Abstract | Multibeam data were collected during R/V Maria S. Merian cruise MSM20/1 leading to the shelfbreak off Namibia. Multibeam sonar system was Kongsberg EM1002. Data are unprocessed. The raw multibeam sonar data in Simrad multibeam processing format (*.all) were recorded with Simrad SIS softwear running on windows operating system. Simrad data files can be processed using the softwear package CARIS HIPS/SIPS or with open sourc softwear package MB-System. |
