JAMSTEC sponsered four collaborative cruises by Japanese and U.S. scientitists, in 1998, 1999, 2001, and 2002, to build a greater understaning of the deep marine geology around the Hawaiian Islands. These cruises have surveyed over 600,000 km2 of the seafloor with a multibeam seafloor mapping sonar system (Seambeam 2112), made robotic and manned submersible dives, collected dredge and piston core samples, and performed single channel seismic surveys. Purpose: These data are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public. The data can be used with geographic information systems (GIS) or other software to display shapefiles.
