Although this Federal Geographic Data Committee-compliant metadata file is intended to document the data set in nonproprietary form, as well as in ArcInfo format, this metadata file may include some ArcInfo-specific terminology.
Started with SXP files that were the output from A 234 kHz Interferometric Submetix Swath Bathy Sonar System. Based on the Julian date at original data collection, individually imported each raw backscatter file into "SEA Swath Processor Real-Time Software System". Configured the way the data was processed in "SEA Swath Processor" by inputting adjustment and offset information, such as ship's motion, tides, velocity of sound, and relative sensor positions.
Used the "SonarWiz.MAP Sonar File Manager" tool: check and correct the navigation data. Manually "bottom-tracked" each line. Applied signal processing functions by setting the Automatic Gain Control (AGC), Beam Angle Correction (BAC), project sonar data using sensor headings. Individually exported the line as a GeoTif file.
Looped through the directory of GeoTif files and
convert GeoTif to ArcGIS raster format.
Removed "NoData" raster cells
using the ArcGIS Con statement; and
projected the data to WGS 1984 UTM Zone 11.

In ArcGIS, imported lines according to track line number and mosaiced adjacent backscatter lines. Mosaicing was done by manually drawing a mask around the best possible data for each line and it's overlapping lines. Best possible data was determined subjectively and included the least no data values as possible in the overlapping areas.
