This record describes multibeam echosounder data collected on RV Investigator voyage IN2017_V02, 'SOTS: Southern Ocean Time Series automated moorings for climate and carbon cycle studies southwest of Tasmania' which departed Hobart on the 17 March 2017 and returned to Hobart on the 28 March 2017. The Kongsberg EM122 multibeam echosounder was used to acquire seafloor bathymetry, backscatter information in the southern ocean The EM122 provides a 1 degree by 1 degree angular resolution. The echosounder's nominal frequency is 12 kHz. Data are stored in .all raw format for bathymetry and backscatter and .wcd format for watercolumn backscatter at CSIRO. There are 163 files totalling 3.8 GB of raw data in this dataset. Sound velocity profiles were applied to this data during data acquisition. Bathymetry data contained in .all format are corrected for motion and position. Tide corrections were applied to the processed data. Processed data had outliers removed. Processed line data are available in .gsf and ascii format, and processed bathymetry and backscatter grids in geotiff format. Additional information regarding this dataset, including information on processing streams, is contained in the GSM data acquisition and processing report. Additional data products may be available on request.
