Bremer Marine Park Bathymetry Gridded to 100 Meters

Bremer Marine Park in Australia's South-west Marine Park Network contains a compilation of multibeam sonar bathymetry data gridded to 100-meter spatial resolution. The dataset includes bathymetry for the Bremer Canyon and adjacent smaller canyons incising the continental slope and outer shelf. This compilation was supported by the National Environmental Science Program Marine Biodiversity Hub.

Use Cases

• Map submarine canyon topography based on gridded bathymetry data.
• Analyze continental slope and outer shelf habitats based on the described spatial resolution.
• Support marine park management planning based on compiled environmental data.
• Model seafloor features for geological research based on multibeam sonar data.

Strengths

• Data is gridded to a specific 100-meter spatial resolution.
• Compilation covers a named marine park and specific geological features (Bremer Canyon).
• Project is supported by a named research program (NESP Marine Biodiversity Hub).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
