This BGS marine multibeam survey took place in May/June 2013 in the area of Isle of May, Anstruther and the Firth of Forth on board the RV White Ribbon. The survey was carried out by the British Geological Survey (BGS). Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system to IHO Order 1A. Bathymetric data on MV White Ribbon was acquired by the British Geological Survey (BGS) using a Kongsberg EM3002D dual head, multibeam echosounder system (MBES). Data were acquired using the Kongsberg SIS operating system, logging raw .ALL files. Offline data processing was performed using CARIS HIPS and SIPS 7.1 SP2

This survey area was part of a multibeam bathymetry carried out by the British Geological Survey on behalf of Scottish Natural Heritage between 25/11/2015 and 17/04/2016. A bathymetric and side scan sonar survey was undertaken using the survey vessel White Ribbon. The aim was to establish baseline mapping of the seabed (examining habitat heterogeneity and fisheries marks) within the target areas prior to the implementation of new management measures.

This British Geological Survey (BGS) marine geophysical and multibeam survey took place in January/Febuary 2012 in the area of the Moray Firth on board the RV White Ribbon. The purpose was to enable BGS to reconstruct the glacial history of the areas and place it in the wider context of the dynamics of the British Ice Sheet. Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system.

This marine multibeam survey took place in March 2012 in the area of Shetland on board the Northern Lighthouse Board vessel NLV Pole Star. The survey was carried out by the British Geological Survey (BGS) on behalf of Marine Scotland. Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system.

This British Geological Survey (BGS) marine geophysical and multibeam survey took place in June 2012 in the area of Ardmucknish Bay on board the RV White Ribbon. This was a follow up survey to the previous work carried out in this area (2011/4 and 2012/5). QICS (Quantifying and monitoring potential ecosystem impacts of geological carbon storage) was a scientific research project funded by NERC; its purpose was to improve the understanding of the sensitivities of the UK marine environment to a potential leak from a carbon capture storage (CCS) system. Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system.

This marine geophysical and multibeam survey was undertaken by British Geological Survey on behalf of Marine Scotland utilising the Northern Lighthouse Board vessel NLV Polestar, it took place in July/August 2012 off south-west Tiree. The purpose was to further our understanding of Scotland’s marine environment, increase the efficiency of use of public resources, enhance the safety of those at sea and contribute to new policy priorities such as marine protected areas, wider conservation measures, marine planning and renewable. Bathymetric data was collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D dual head, multibeam system. Data was acquired using a Kongsberg SIS operating system, logging raw .ALL files. This data was processed offline by BGS using CARIS HIPS and SIPS 7.1 SP2.

This marine geophysical, multibeam and seabed imaging survey took place in May/June 2012 in the area of Isle of May, Firth of Forth on board the RV White Ribbon. The survey was carried out by the British Geological Survey (BGS) and was commissioned by DEFRA to investigate best practice, and innovative methodologies for the mapping and monitoring of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system.

This BGS marine geophysical survey took place in July 2005 in the Summer Isles region aboard the RV Calanus. The survey was a part of the BGS Offshore Mapping and Modelling Project, North Atlantic Correlation. Subsurface data were gathered using a Surface Tow Boomer and a very detailed swath coverage of the Summer Islands region together with Loch Broom and Little Loch Broom was achieved using a Geoacoustics GeoSwath system supplied and operated by Fathoms Ltd.
