Description Application of multi-beam bathymetric data provides interesting seafloor features. Besides obtaining bathymetric data for seabed characterization backscatter data is also important. However, use of raw multi-beam backscatter image data is limited due to the presence of inherent artifacts. Generally, angular backscatter strength data show higher values towards the normal incidence angles especially for smooth seafloor compared to outer-beam angles. Therefore, off-line corrections are essential to compensate outer-beam backscatter strength data in such a way that the effect of angular backscatter strength is removed. In this work we have developed backscatter data processing techniques for EM1002 multi-beam system
