ATLANTIC_CH10_Specification_1 / Sample areas of digital bathymetry covering representative areas of the North Atlantic.

This data product selects sample areas of digital bathymetry, chosen for their relevance to marine activities and data sources alternative to GEBCO. The approach for building the digital map of water depth is to use GEBCO as a baseline and look at a set of sample areas where GEBCO could be improved upon. Sample areas have also been selected to be representative of each continent bordering the Atlantic and expected future requirements. Data sources include GEBCO, EMODNET, USGS and CHS.

Purpose
To assess a sample set of sites, chosen for their relevance to marine activities such as navigation and wind farm siting, with respect to improving on the GEBCO bathymetry available there.
