The Banks Strait bathymetry survey was acquired for the Australian Hydrographic Office (AHO) onboard the M/V Offshore Solution and SMB Indigo during the period 20 January – 17 July 2021. The survey was contracted as part of the HydroScheme Industry Partnership Program (HIPP). The survey area encompasses Banks Strait located between the Northern Tasmanian coast and the Furneaux Group (including Cape Barren, Clarke and Flinders Islands). Bathymetry data was acquired using a Kongsberg EM2040-04 MKII and EM 2040P multibeam sonar and processed using QPS Qimera V2.0.1. The dataset was then exported to GeoTIFF using CARIS HIPS and SIPS software. This dataset contains a 30m-resolution 32-bit floating point GeoTIFF file. This dataset is not to be used for navigational purposes.
