AbstractThe data were acquired with a Simrad EM710 Multi Beam echosounder onboard the R/V Urania in order to cover the outer Malta Plateau and upper Malta Escarpment for a geological survey in the framework of EU FP7 project EUROFLEETS. The data were published in: Micallef, A., Georgiopoulou, A., Le Bas, T., Mountjoy, J.J., Huvenne, V., Lo Iacono, C., 2013.
