Multibeam bathymetry raw data were recorded in the Mediterranean Sea during cruise SO277 (GPF 19-2_012) that took place between 2020-08-14 and 2020-10-03 (Emden-Emden). The data were collected using a vessel-mounted Kongsberg EM710. Sound velocity profiles (SVP) were applied on the data for calibration. Please see environmental data (zip file) and the cruise report for details.SO277 served two scientific projects. The objectives of the first project, SMART, were to develop multi-disciplinary methodologies to detect, quantify, and model offshore groundwater reservoirs in regions dominated by carbonate geology such as the Mediterranean Sea.

These data should not be used for navigational purposes.
