Coastal Multibeam Bathymetry and Backscatter Data Collected in May 2023 from Rockaway Peninsula, New York
An Ellipsoidally Referenced Survey (ERS) using two Teledyne Reson SeaBat T50-P multibeam echosounders, in dual-head configuration, was conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) covering the nearshore, seaward side of Rockaway Peninsula, New York (NY), from May 6-16, 2023. This dataset, Rockaway_2023_MBES_xyz.zip, includes the processed elevation point data (x,y,z), as derived from a 1-meter (m) bathymetric grid and the dataset Rockaway_2023_MBES_Backscatter.zip includes the acoustic backscatter intensity data in 32-bit floating point GeoTIFF (Geographic Tag Image File Format, .tiff) format.
