Echosounder - should it have a space

[edit]

Given that echo sounding is two words, should this article be "Multibeam echo sounder"? 125.63.18.196 (talk) 00:15, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There are also other weird squashedtogethermultiplewords, such as acrosstrack and alongtrack which are just dumped on the unsuspecting reader without explanation or linking. If these are indeed specialist jargon, they need to be defined or linked, but given the title I suspect they are simply errors.76.105.216.34 (talk) 05:35, 6 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There are many ways of writing multi-beam echo sounder, none of which are technically wrong. Alongtrack and acrosstrack are widely accepted hydrographic terms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.122.33.71 (talk) 19:07, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

NOAA Ship Mount Mitchell

[edit]

I used to work as a Electronic Tech on the NOAA Ship Mount Mitchell and I was surprised to not see this ship mentioned as a pioneer recepiant of the SeaBeam Multi-Beam Echo Sounder. Here is a quote from the Wikipedia article on the Mount Mitchell. "Mount Mitchell conducted hydrographic surveys on the United States East Coast and in the Caribbean, and served as an oceanographic vessel throughout much of the North Atlantic Ocean on various projects. In the late 1980s she was fitted with a multi-beam sounding system for hydrographic work related to establishing the maritime exclusive economic zone of the United States and discovered Mitchell Dome among other large, economically significant undersea features in the Gulf of Mexico." We also did high resolution mapping of the Sigsbee Deep. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOAA_Ship_Mount_Mitchell>
