The images were acquired by RV SONNEs OFOS in the GER working area ~1.5 years after the collector trial. Mission goal: Image survey of the reference site at 1.5 m altitude. Mission conducted in a no-nodule site west of the collector impact site. Mission comments: The distance between the laser points is 40 cm.-117.5099627-117.458276311.810876411.8299809
