Multibeam bathymetry raw data using the ship's own Kongsberg EM 710 multibeam echosounder was not continuously recorded during RV METEOR cruise M77/2. Data was recorded on 23 days between 2008-11-25 and 2008-12-20. This dataset contains a survey in the South Pacific Ocean close to the coast of Peru and Ecuador. The approximate average depth of the entire dataset is around 600m, ranging from 700m to 1100m. The data are archived at the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency of Germany (Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie, BSH) and provided to PANGAEA database for data curation and publication. No ancillary sound velocity profiles (SVP) files from the cruise are archived at the BSH, thus no SVP files are added to this dataset. Data analysis of the multibeam raw data revealed that SVP has been changed during the survey. This publication is conducted within the efforts of the German Marine Research Alliance in the core area 'Data management and Digitalization' (Deutsche Allianz Meeresforschung, DAM). Data are unprocessed and therefore contains incorrect depth measurements (artifacts) without further processing. Overall, it appears that the data quality is rather moderate and partially bad since the gridded hillshade data showed relatively many obstacles (e.g. "railway tracks"). Note that refraction errors can be expected due to the lack of proper SVP. Note, that almost the entire time the EM120 device was operated at the same time, however it is not clear whether the simultaneous operation of both systems caused interference during data acquisition. Data can be processed e.g. with the open source software package MB-System (Caress et al. 2024, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6302801). ** For all details see the full metadata description at "https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.993202"! ** These data should not be used for navigational purposes. Data publishing was realized by Daniel Damaske, MARUM - Center for Marine Environmental Sciences (University Bremen).
