Multibeam Echo Sounding

Multibeam Echo Sounding is a seafloor mapping method that employs a fan-shaped array of acoustic beams emitted from a sonar system to simultaneously measure multiple depth points across a swath of the seafloor, thereby enabling high-resolution bathymetric reconstruction of marine terrain.
