New MARTA downloading facility

The downloading facility in MARTA has been updated. Survey data released for download is now placed in the ‘cloud’ on a Microsoft Azure platform, which provides a faster and more user-friendly function. The web map MARTA/lines/data for download/ still provides an overview of surveys available for download. By clicking on any sailing line in a desired survey, a new page opens with access to data as zip files. Surveys will often contain 2 data packages, one with seismic data and one with sidescan sonar data, which can be downloaded separately. The size of the data zip-files is indicated. For some surveys, the data packages are too large for download via Azure. Here, another data transfer can be agreed via the indicated GEUS email address.
