08CCT03 map of where navigation equipment operated

Information Specialist
Dana Wiese
Purpose
To create a complete modern topobathymetric map of the Mississippi barrier
islands. Data to provide information for the following: sediment budget;
assessment of immediate sand resources in the region, modern geologic
framework; historical island change measurements; base-level assessment of the
seafloor since the 2005 hurricane season
Information to be Derived
Submetrix swath bathymetry data; sub-bottom image profiles.
