| EM302 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During EX0905 |
| The goals of this field trial cruise are to test use of EX mapping sensors to characterize
complex geological areas (i.e. volcanic field) and develop protocols to handle discoveries
in terms of communication links, public information releases, websites etc. Also during
EX0904 CIMS (Cruise Information Management System) was brought online, and integration
of this system with mapping system will be tested during this cruise. Like other field
trials, this cruise has primary and secondary goals and objectives. Completion of
primary goals and objectives will make the cruise a success. The primary goal and
objectives will be achieved in the context of mapping in the vicinity of Mendocino
ridge. |
