Description
KR-OER-19-01 mapped 31,900 square kilometers around Florida and in the vicinity of the Blake Plateau (Southeastern Atlantic). All of these data were collected within the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone in depths from approximately 844 m to 3673 m.
The delivered data include both raw and processed data. Bathymetric raw data are uncorrected or with exception of online corrections. Processed bathymetric data include the full resolution in GSF (Generic Sensor Format) as well as bathymetric grids as Geotiff. The processing for bathymetric data was fully corrected for erroneous soundings, tides, sound speed, vessel offsets, draft and dynamic draft using a combination of proprietary and off the shelf processing tools. In addition to the bathymetric data, other types of data collected and provided included: Seafloor backscatter, water column backscatter and sub-bottom profiler data.
