This record describes scientific split-beam echosounder data collected on the RV Investigator voyage IN2017_C02, ['Hogan Group Hydrographic Survey – Bass Strait'] which departed Hobart on the 4th May 2017 and came alongside Bell Bay following completion of the survey on the 14th May 2017.

The Simrad EK60 split beam echosounders [12], 18, 38, 70 120, 200 and 333 kHz were used to acquire acoustic backscatter data to a range of [range] m, around Bass Strait. All frequencies were logged sporadically for the extent of the voyage. The frequencies were set to passive for the periods of the voyage. Data are stored in .raw, .bot and *.idx format at CSIRO. There are 1,120 files totalling 22 GB of raw data in this dataset.
