            NGDC is the US national archive for multibeam bathymetric data and 
            presently holds over 1.6 million nautical miles of ship tracklines 
            (660 surveys) received from sources worldwide.

      Abstract: 
        This data set is part of a larger set of data called the the MultiBeam
        Bathymetric Data Base (MBBDB) where other similar data can be found at 
        http://map.ngdc.noaa.gov/website/mgg/multibeam/.
      Purpose: 
        The intent of these data is to make high-resolution bathymetry available 
        to the public for a
        wide variety of uses such as research and earth science analysis. These 
        data are not intended to be used for navigation.
        Nautical charts produced and certified by NOAA should be used for 
        navigational purposes. For more information on NOAA"s
        nautical charts go to NOAA"s Office of Coast Survey website at: 
        http://chartmaker.ncd.noaa.gov/.

          Multibeam Bathymetry
        Entity Type Definition: 
          The determination of ocean depths or the general configuration of the 
          sea floor as determined by the profile analysis of depth data, using 
          a multibeam, wide-swath echo sounder. Depths are measured directly 
          below and transverse to the ship's track. The width of the swath is 
          a function of the number of beams and their aperture.
