Description: This map shows the ship survey lines where the seabed has been mapped in Irish waters.The seabed is mapped using boats. The boats use special equipment called a multibeam echosounder. A multibeam echosounder is a type of sonar that is used to map the seabed. Sound waves are emitted in a fan shape beneath the boat. The amount of time it takes for the sound waves to bounce off the bottom of the sea and return to a receiver is used to determine water depth. The data are collected as points in XYZ format. X and Y coordinates and Z (depth). The boat travels up and down the water in a series of lines (trackline). An XYZ file is created for each line and contains thousands of points. The line files are merged together and converted into gridded data to create a Digital Terrain Model of the seabed. We use different sized boats and equipment depending on the depth of the water. This data shows the extent of each survey area. It also gives information on the boat and equipment used to map the area.It is a vector dataset. Vector data portray the world using points, lines, and polygons (areas).The tracklines are shown as lines. Each line holds information on the vessel name, line type, line no., survey name, survey area, id and trackline length km.The dataset was mapped as part of the Joint Irish Bathymetric Survey Project (JIBS). The Maritime and Coastguard Agency was the Project leader, approved under the INTERREG IIIA Programme, with the Marine Institute of Ireland as project partner. The objective of the JIBS Project was to promote joint action to survey the seabed in such a way as to satisfy the needs of many organisations. The JIBS project commenced on 10 April 2007 and was completed in June 2008.
