Multibeam echo sounder (MBES) data has been acquired globally for several decades. Despite efforts to unify MBES acquisition, processing and delivery, there are no globally recognised standards to adhere to. Currently, many organisations use various acquisition systems and parameters, processing strategies and data formats for MBES data. This limits the usability of MBES data, particularly when attempting to combine datasets of different sources to map a large region of the seabed. Therefore, defining MBES specifications is an important step towards standardisation and data sharing.
