MB-System is an open source software package that enables the user to manipulate, process, display, and analyze swath sonar bathymetry and sidescan data. Renewal of support for MB-System allows upgrades that take advantage of recent hardware improvements including: addition of new data formats; uses beyond standard seafloor mapping (e.g. water column mapping), evolving computer architecture which, with the planned upgrades, will lead to increased program performance. Outputs for new real-time data display capability will be added for the first time.In contrast to when MB-System was first developed, there are now commercial software packages available to process swath sonar data. However, Geoscience researchers continue to require capabilities that are not available elsewhere- multiple survey handling, access to and ability to adjust filtering parameters- as well as needing a low cost method to conduct this type of work. Scientists can share in the development of MB-System modules and this provides a vibrant exchange of information and keeps the package well-tuned to user needs.

MB-System是一个开源软件包，使用户能够操纵，处理，显示和分析Swath声纳测深和侧扫数据。 续签对MB系统的支持允许利用最近的硬件改进的升级，包括：添加新数据格式；超越标准海底映射（例如水柱映射）的用途不断发展的计算机架构，随着计划的升级，将导致计划的性能提高。新的实时数据显示功能的输出将首次添加。与首次开发MB系统相比，现在有商业软件包可用于处理Swath Sonar数据。但是，地球科学研究人员继续需要其他地方无法使用的功能 - 多次调查处理，访问和调整过滤参数的能力以及需要低成本方法来进行此类工作。科学家可以分享MB系统模块的开发，这提供了充满活力的信息交换，并将包装良好地调整为用户需求。
