Summary

This GeoTiff presents the results of multi-beam sonar scans of the bed of the Solimoes River (upper Amazon) collected in early October 2022 upstream of Tefe, Brazil. These scans were collected as part of our study of the characteristics of the river banks and bed, an investigation of controls on channel mobility (results were published in Bruckner, Aalto, et al., 2024, Geology v.52 (7), 533-538). It can be viewed as a simple TIF file in a photo viewer, or it can be imported into a GIS system for located display (and access to metadata).
