General Description |
|
What data/products do you use? |
Sidescan, multibeam sonar bathymetry maps, sub-surface data if available |
When do you use this kind of dataset? |
During seismic surveys to determine susceptibility of substrate to seismic activities and gain information on substrate stability
During exploration and development to help determine of anchor placement or location of production platform |
What are your actual limitations and do you have a work around? |
This data is currently not available unless the area has seen recent multibeam mapping.
Current data acquisition is vessel based and thus expensive and time consuming |
Needs and expectations on EO data |
Not sure, EO capabilities can address this as it requires penetration to ocean floor
Unclear - require sub-sediment penetration into ocean floor |
