Painting by numbers: A GMT primer for merging swath-mapping sonar data of different types and resolutions

Swath-mapping sonar systems are used to map the sea floor either by collecting bathymetry or backscatter data. However, the manipulation of such data to produce maps for interpretation requires specialized expertise that most geologists do not possess. This paper is intended to introduce a geoscient...
