mechanical scanning imaging sonar

Mechanical Scanning Sonars (MSS) are popular underwater sensors for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV) due to their low cost, small size, and low power consumption. But due to their simplicity, there are also many research challenges related to their usage.  Unfortunately, there is also a lack of data with ground truth UUV localization. We provide MSS datasets using a UUV with standard navigation sensors, i.e., an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and a Doppler Velocity Log (DVL).
