Bathymetry (for extension to Backscatter) 

Survey Year (Optional)

Year the Survey commenced (optional) as sometimes this information is visible within the SurveyID e.g. in2019_e01

Resolution - Horizontal

Resolution of grid in metres as per the AusSeabed_DepthRanges_2019 procedure, For fractions such as 0.5m resolution, use - 0p5m

Sensor Identifier (Optional)

e.g. EM122_CUBE, EM122_SA (Identifier may include raster algorithm, or Band contents)

RegionCode

Each Survey will be broken up into one or more Region Codes based on xxx grid definition.

MeasurementLabel

e.g Depth, or Uncertainty, or Density

Version Identifier

Usually considered the production or publication date of the GeoTIFF: If a date, submit in a standard format using ISO 8601 – {20201214}[{T052921Z}]. Alternatively or additionally use versions numbers e.g. v1, v2 etc

Format extension
