A good estimate of heading correction and transducer offset is available from adjacent cruises. Data below the bottom was removed, as well as small bits of data at the the bottom of the sonars range was removed. Due to a strong scattering layer, some data was flagged as "below that bottom". Some of this data was able to be reclaimed. Editing and updating the dxdy correction improved the data during heading changes.
