This paper describes several new developments in the evolution of side scan sonar seabed mapping systems. A new advanced microprocessor-controlled tuning improves record quality. New deep tow vehicles allow for relatively high speed, medium-depth towing or low speed, full ocean depth towing. Detailed bottom topography can be overlaid on the side scan sonar/subbottom profiler data to enhance record interpretation.
