contents The data contain bathymetric data from the Namibia continental slope. The data were acquired on R/V Meteor research expeditions M76/1 in 2008, and R/V Maria S. Merian expedition MSM19/1c in 2011. The purpose of the data was the exploration of the Namibian continental slope and espressially the investigation of large seafloor depressions. The bathymetric data were acquired with the 191-beam 12 kHz Kongsberg EM120 system. The data were processed using the public software package MBSystems. The loaded data were cleaned semi-automatically and manually, removing outliers and other erroneous data. Initial velocity fields were adjusted to remove artifacts from the data. Gridding was done in 10x10 m grid cells for the MSM19-1c dataset and 50x50 m for the M76 dataset using the Gaussian Weighted Mean algorithm.
