Caris HIPS/SIPS (Hydrographic Information Processing System/ Side-scan Information Processing System) is used for processing, correcting, and analyzing all bathymetric, side scan, and phase-differencing bathymetric sonar data. Caris SIPS is used for converting and correcting side-scan sonar imagery and for contact selection and mosaic generation. After acquisition, SSS data are converted from XTF format to Caris HDCS format. Fish height, vessel heading (gyro), and vessel navigation records are then reviewed and corrected and recalculated. Data are then slant-range corrected to 0.1m with beam pattern correction. Side scan mosaics were created using the SIPS side scan editor. Mosaics consisted of combinations of lines that resulted in a seamless product after interpolation was applied during GeoBAR creation in Caris SIPS. Since the dataset is so large, a final mosaic was created using ArcGIS 9.x Raster Dataset Tools in the Toolbox.
