Summary
The U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS SPCMSC), collected multibeam echosounder (MBES) data off the coast of Seven Mile Island in September of 2018. This USGS data release includes the resulting processed elevation point data (xyz). For further information regarding data collection and/or processing please see the metadata associated with this data release.
This USGS data release includes the resulting processed elevation point data (xyz) collected under the Field Activity Number (FAN) 2018-323-FA, SubFAN 18CCT05 on board the RV Sallenger. The XYZ data are provided in two datums; the World Geodetic System of 1984 (WGS84) and the North American Datum 1983 (NAD83) for the horizontal and the North American Vertical Datum 1988 (NAVD88 GEOID12B) for the vertical.Data
