Abstract
<div>The Kangaroo Island (South-East) bathymetry survey was acquired for the Australian Hydrographic Office (AHO) during the period 1 Dec 2022 – 31 May 2023. This was a contracted survey conducted for the Australian Hydrographic Office by Precision Hydrographic Services as part of the Hydroscheme Industry Partnership Program. The survey area encompasses an area in Kangaroo Island (South-East) . Bathymetry data was acquired using Kongsberg EM2040-07, Kongsberg EM2040-P and Kongsberg EM2040-P SV MKII, and processed using QIMERA processing software. The dataset was then exported as a 30m resolution, 32 bit floating point GeoTIFF grid of the survey area.</div><div>This dataset is not to be used for navigational purposes.</div>
