Abstract

<div>The Cape Barren to Babel Island bathymetry survey was acquired for the Australian Hydrographic Office (AHO) onboard the MV Ocean Dynasty and MV Pacific Crest during the period 28 February – 06 May 2021. This was a contracted survey conducted by MMA Offshore as part of the Hydroscheme Industry Partnership Program. The survey area encompasses the Cape Barren to Babel Island, Tasmania. Bathymetry data was acquired using a Kongsberg EM2040P and processed using CARIS HIPS & SIPS 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>
