Refuge Cove Survey 2013 (GA4881)

This resource includes bathymetry data acquired during the Refuge Cove bathymetry survey acquired by Deakin University Marine Mapping Lab during the period of 07 – 11 June 2013 onboard the MV Yolla using a Kongsberg Maritime EM2040C multibeam sonar. The Refuge Cove bathymetry survey was led by Dr. Daniel Ierodiaconou (Deakin University). This dataset contains a 1m-resolution 32-bit floating point GeoTIFF file of the bathymetry in the study area, derived from the processed EM2040C bathymetry data, using CARIS HIPS and SIPS software. The elevation datum is shifted to EGM2008 at Geoscience Australia. Detailed information on this survey is provided in: Ierodiaconou, D., Schimel, A. C., Kennedy, D., Monk, J., Gaylard, G., Young, M., Diesing, M. & Rattray, A. (2018).
