Raw variables derived from Sonic data files

Sonic echosounder data files (.050, .100, .200 and .FS3)

Echoview can derive the following raw variables from Sonic KFC-500 (*.050), KFC-1000 and -3000 (*.100), KFC-2000 (*.200) and KFS (*.FS3) data files:

  • angular position pings (w beam)
  • Sv pings SIGn (w beam)
  • position GPS fixes
  • line data sounder detected bottom (w beam)

Sonic KFC-6000/KSE-300 echosounder data files (.200)

Echoview can derive the following raw variables from Sonic KFC-6000/KSE-300 (*.200) data files:

  • angular position split beam pings Tn
  • Sv single beam pings Tn
  • Sv split beam pings Tn
  • TS single beam pings Tn
  • TS split beam pings Tn
  • position GPS fixes
  • heading data
  • line data sounder detected bottom Tn
  • Power dB single beam pings Tn
  • Power dB split beam pings Tn

Where:

w = beam width (narrow or wide)
n
= channel number
