IN order to achieve correct data, the ME70 Multibeam scientific echo sounder system must be calibrated.
Roll/Pitch calibration
The ME70 Multibeam scientific echo sounder system must be roll and pitch calibrated as described in the Seafloor Information System (SIS) documentation. Enter the roll and pitch calibration result values as addition to the current instrument offset values for
the transducer.
Target strength (TS) and backscatter calbration
For target strength (TS) and backscatter calibration, the bathymetric modes may be calibrated the same way as for the other
beam modes.
