Description
Single-beam bathymetry, gravity, and magnetic data along with DGPS navigation data was collected as part of field activity L-3-84-SP in Tonga, Southern Pacific from 04/02/1984 to 05/01/1984, http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/l/l384sp/html/l-3-84-sp.meta.html
These data are reformatted from space-delimited ASCII text files located in the Coastal and Marine Geology Program (CMGP) InfoBank field activity catalog at http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/l/l384sp/html/l-3-84-sp.bath.html, http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/l/l384sp/html/l-3-84-sp.grav.html, and http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/l/l384sp/html/l-3-84-sp.mag.html into MGD77T format provided by the NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center(NGDC). The MGD77T format includes a header (documentation) file (.h77t) and a data file (.m77t). More information regarding this format can be found in the publication listed in the Cross_reference section of this metadata file.
