NCCOS Mapping: Geospatial products of water depth and acoustic backscatter collected by NOAA Ship Nancy Foster in Carolina Long Bay from 2024-06-12 to 2024-06-18 (NCEI Accession 0303334)
Multibeam bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data collected by NOAA Ship Nancy Foster from 2024-06-12 to 2024-06-18. These data were collected using a Kongsberg EM2040 multibeam echosounder (MBES). Bathymetry grids were created using Qimera; depths are referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). Backscatter mosaics were created using Fledermaus Geocoder Toolbox (FMGT). Survey depths range from 25 to 33 meters. Processed grids are available at 0.5 and 1m resolution.
