Status: Completed
Organization(s): USGS, St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center
Funding Program(s):
Principal Investigator(s): Mark Erik Hansen
Affiliate Investigator(s):
Information Specialist(s): Nancy DeWitt
Data Type(s): Location-Elevation: Navigation, Sonar: Interferometric
Scientific Purpose/Goals: The primary use of the data collected for this project was for the development of boundary conditions in numerical hydrodynamic modeling for establishing MFL in Southwest Florida. Therefore, the shallow water sonar swath interferometric system was selected to be best suited for fulfilling project requirements.
Vehicle(s): None
