Description
The overall objective is to familiarize participating scientists with
PISCES multibeam echosounder (Simrad ME70) configuration, operation, calibration and data
collection and test the sonar's capabilities for a variety of applications. An additional
objective is to collect water column and seafloor scattering data using PISCES multibeam
echosounder and splitbeam echosounders (Simrad EK60) in coordination with measurements
being conducted on OKEANOS EXPLORER using Simrad EM302 multibeam echosounder for
comparison between systems.
