Generic sensor format
The generic sensor format (GSF) is a file format used for storing bathymetry data, such as that gathered by a multibeam echosounder.[1] The format was created by Scott Ferguson and Daniel A. Chayes.[2][3]
The file format specifications and C source code for a library to read and write GSF files are available from Leidos,[1] who maintain both the format specification and the source code.[3] The GSF library source code is published under the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 2.1.[3]
Usage[edit]
The following software packages support GSF:
- Teledyne CARIS HIPS and SIPS[4]
- EIVA NaviEdit[5]
- Fledermaus[6]
- MB-System[7]
- QINSy[8]
- BeamworX AutoClean[9]
- WASSP[10]
- Qimera[11]
- HYPACK[12]
- ISS-2000[13]
- SABER[14]
- PFMABE (open source)[15]
- MB-System Seafloor Mapping Software (open source)[16]
