Multibeam Survey of Rankin Bank and Glomar Shoals, Western Australia (WEL - Glomar/Rankin)

Created 24/06/2025

Updated 24/06/2025

Multibeam swath mapping was undertaken by Fugro Spatial (Perth) via a series of acoustic transects to establish the general shape of Rankin Bank and Glomar Shoal and determine the extreme boundaries. Digital multibeam acoustics have provided bathymetry and geomorphology data to assist future survey planning. The data was post-processed and QA'd by Fugro Spatial (Perth) before being supplied to AIMS for further processing and analysis.
