Components
The EM710 consists of a transducer array for transmitting (Tx) and an array for receiving (Rx), the transceiver unit, the data aquisition PC with the aquisition software SIS and two processing PCs (bridge and Messraum) with the software Caris HIPS/SIPS.
The software "Seafloor Information System" (SIS) contains several graphic displays for quality checks and for system calibration as well as other tools. SIS supports an online/realtime data cleansing. Both SIS and the processing software Caris HIPS/SIPS are protected via a dongle. Please contact the bridge staff for suppport.

Central geographical ship's position and time standard
The GPS position of the Trimble GPS receiver antenna is stored in the data files. The position is NOT centralized to the SES2000 transducers. Heave correction between the motion sensor and the transducer are calculated in the motion sensor and corrected values are transferred to the SES2000. Time synchronisation is achieved via NTP. Centralization of the GPS position to the transducer is achieved by SIS software. GPS antenna position and transducer position related to the motion sensor position as a reference point are stored in the data files. Pay attention that in case of failure of the Trimble GPS sensor the Saab GPS sensor may be used as the reference GPS source. Please contact the bridge staff for information about the GPS receiver in use. Heave correction values are only available for the Trimble GPS receiver. Heave correction between the motion sensor and the transducer is calculated in the EM710 transceiver unit. UTC time synchronisation of the transceiver unit is achieved via GPS with PPS. The PC is synchronised with UTC via the Windows-Domain-Affiliation to ensure a correct naming of the dat files.
Rawdata storage on board
Dship
...
The data acquisition software SIS creates raw data on the local drive of the computer. The EM710 data are not transferred to DSHIP.
| root directory | E:\sisdata\raw\ or \\xdc\home\data\mbes\ |
| directory name | CruiseNo e.g. HE507 |
| file name | nnnn_YYYYMMDD_hhmmss_Suffix.all |
| Data volume (MB per day) ca. | 2800 |
| Number of files per day ca. | 50 |
Dship
The EM710 outputs water depths of the central beam via a serial connector to DSHIP.

Data archiving on land
After consultation with the data scientist and AWI Logistics the EM710 data including meta data may be transferred to PANGAEA (https://www.pangaea.de/).
