Multibeam Sidescan Sonar Marine Habitats Survey Trial 2011/12 - Fisheries Science Partnership

Description

A project trialling the deployment of a multibeam echosounder from a fishing vessel off Northeast England. The project was a novel programme in which the commercial potting vessel *Providence* was chartered to undertake an acoustic seabed survey to assess the character of the seabed using state-of-the-art scientific equipment. This was done to assess whether the fishing industry can play a role collecting seabed habitat data to address the UK's need for such data by deploying a multibeam echosounder from a fishing vessel.
