The GEBCO Digital Atlas — a two volume CDROM set which contains: The GEBCO One Minute Grid; A global set of digital bathymetric contours and coastlines; The GEBCO Gazetteer of Undersea Feature Names: a digital gazetteer of undersea feature names. A software interface for viewing and accessing the data sets; The GEBCO Gazetteer of Undersea ...
SDB data are part of the European harmonized bathymetry grid EMODnet bathymetry, [7] and as such integrated into the General Bathymetric Chart of the Ocean. Software tools for the creation of Satellite-derived bathymetry range from desktop-based cookbook solutions [ 8 ] up to web-based software solutions [ 9 ]
IBCSO version 2 was published in 2022 [5] and increased the extent of the bathymetric map to 50°S, increasing the area covered by 2.5 compared to IBCSO version 1. 92.7% of map data originate from multibeam data, 6.7% originate from singlebeam data, and the remaining ~1% comes from mixed sources (seismic reflection, lidar, etc.).
This is a list of free and open-source software for geological data handling and interpretation. The list is split into broad categories, depending on the intended use of the software and its scope of functionality. Notice that 'free and open-source' requires that the source code is available and users are given a free software license.
The General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) is a publicly available bathymetric chart of the world's oceans. The project was conceived with the aim of preparing a global series of charts showing the general shape of the seafloor. Over the years it has become a reference map of the bathymetry of the world's oceans for scientists and others.
Bathymetric Attributed Grid (BAG) is a file format designed to store and exchange bathymetric data. The implementation of the format was triggered by the large adoption of gridded bathymetry and the need of transferring the required information about bathymetry and associated uncertainty (i.e., metadata) between processing applications.
Bathymetric maps (a more general term where navigational safety is not a concern) may also use a digital terrain model and artificial illumination techniques to illustrate the depths being portrayed. The global bathymetry is sometimes combined with topography data to yield a global relief model. Paleobathymetry is the study of past underwater ...
The generic sensor format (GSF) is a file format used for storing bathymetry data, such as that gathered by a multibeam echosounder. [1] The format was created by Scott Ferguson and Daniel A. Chayes. [ 2 ] [ 3 ]
