Our worldwide bathymetry data represents one of the most detailed models of the global seafloor yet assembled - a unique combination of the latest satellite-derived gravity measurements with digital bathymetric charts based on more than a hundred years of ship-borne hydrographic surveys. We've used each data source where it performs best - satellite gravity measurements in the open ocean, and traditional depth soundings in coastal waters and historically well-mapped areas such as the approaches to major ports. We can also offer high-resolution bathymetry for some areas, such as United States coastal waters and sites of scientific research such as the mid-ocean ridges.
