abstract This British Geological Survey (BGS) marine multibeam survey took place in August 2010 in Loch Eriboll on board the RV White Ribbon. The aim was improve the geological understanding of the area and the interpretation of various sedimentary processes active on the seafloor. Loch Eriboll has played an important role in naval warfare and it is believed much material, including several vessels, has ended up on the floor of the loch. Having an accurate map of such obstacles can be used to update the archaeological records and mean better marine spatial planning for future users including aquaculture. Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system. These data are archived by BGS. Technical details of the survey are contained in BGS Internal Report IR/11/038.
