Side-scan Sonar Mapping

Side-Scan Sonar Mapping is a geophysical surveying method that employs acoustic backscatter from seafloor surfaces, distinguished by its use of laterally directed sonar beams to generate high-resolution imagery of seabed texture and morphology for bathymetric and geological interpretation.
