This backscatter imagery layer represents approximately 7 square kilometers of interferometric sonar (Systems Engineering and Assessment Ltd. SWATHPlus-M) backscatter data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in the Connecticut River in 2012 during USGS field activity 2012-024-FA. These data can be used in conjunction with other geophysical and sample data to identify riverbed morphology and sediment texture.
