Description This record describes multibeam echosounder data collected on RV Investigator voyage IN2021_E01 titled "Equipment Calibrations and Trials #1". The voyage took place between November 10 and November 14, 2021, departing from Hobart (TAS) and arriving in Hobart (TAS).

The purpose of this voyage was to undertake post port-period equipment calibrations and commissioning, sea trials and personnel training. These objectives included testing the new piston coring system and performing annual GSM equipment calibrations.

The following primary GSM tasks were undertaken:
• EK60 & EK80 calibration at anchor (White Rock, Derwent River)
• Backscatter calibration lines across calibration sites/lines 1 & 4 (in Storm Bay)
• EM710 & EM122 multibeam systems standard patch test calibrations (Latency, Roll, Pitch & Yaw)
• Mapping of a bathymetry reference surface in a water depth of 150 m with the EM710
• Testing of Valeport SVX-2 deep water sound velocity probe to 3000 m
• Personnel training and inter-organisation skills transfer (AAD)

This dataset is published with the permission of CSIRO. Not to be used for navigational purposes.

The dataset contains bathymetry grids of 5m to 210m resolution of Storm Bay, produced from the processed EM122 and EM710 bathymetry data.
