Multibeam Bathymetry Data Collected in 2016 from Grand Bay Alabama/Mississippi: Trackline navigation

Description

A reconnaissance multibeam bathymetry survey was conducted by the U.S Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) in Grand Bay Alabama/Mississippi on May 12, 2016 as an assessment of the shallow water capabilities of the Teledyne Reson SeaBat T50-P multibeam echosounder, and as an attempt to map the eroding marsh edges at locations of interest around the bay. This dataset, Grand_Bay_2016_MBB_Tracklines.zip, includes the trackline vector file derived from the acquisition software at the time of survey.
