A new topobathymetric lidar dataset for the Potomac River from the #USGS 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) is available for download. Uses: estimating concentrations of contaminant plumes; engineering for bridges and roads; mapping aquatic habitats for biological assessments; and flood mapping.

Learned about this fun #GIS dataset on a regional IL GIS call recently.

It's a #bathymetry point cloud of the #Chicago River and Ship Canal, and it's detailed enough to spot cars!

7% 25% Of The Ocean Floor Mapped From 2017 (Seabed 2030)

“🗺 Did you know that in 2017, only 6% of the world’s seafloor had been mapped to modern standards? Considering the ocean spans some 70% of the Earth’s surface, that’s a significant gap!
But over the past five years since Seabed 2030 launched, we’ve been able to map almost 25% of the ocean floor.
By discovering more about the seabed, we gain a greater understanding of our environment and can ensure its protection. After all, we can’t protect what we don’t know…”

Made a map of the sea depth around Greece (deepest point SW of Peloponnesos = around 5100 m deep). Curious about the origin of the structures west of Kefalonia.

Pro tip for anyone who happens to be looking for high resolution #bathymetry and #topography data. Nasa's publicly available images top out at 3.6k pixels wide, which might not be enough for say a detailed 3D model. But if you go to the web page where they're available e.g. https://neo.gsfc.nasa.gov/view.php?datasetId=GEBCO_BATHY and click one of the download links, it actually renders the data live. So if you hack the URL you can dial up any* resolution you want.
The URL for the bathymetry data for example ends with `&format=PNG&width=3600&height=1800`. If you want an image with say, 10 times the resolution, just add a zero to both dimensions.
*Not sure what the upper limit is, or what resolution the original data set is. Don't abuse it or it might get taken away.

What Is A Digital Elevation Model (DEM)?- A Practical Guide

“A Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is a digital cartographic dataset that represents a continuous topographic elevation surface through a series of cells. Each cell represents the elevation (Z) of a feature at its location (X and Y). Digital Elevation Models are a “bare earth” representation because they only contain information about the elevation of geological (ground) features, such as valleys, mountains, and landslides, to name a few. They do not include any elevation data concerning non-ground features, such as vegetation or buildings...”

#Polarstern spent 4 days in Eltanin Bay conducting a geological survey and selecting core sites. This area is largely unmapped and therefore a great chance to collect new hi-res bathymetric data! A major interest is to understand the geomorphic structures created by the ice flow. #AWI

Ronne Entrance is the southern entrance from Bellingshausen Sea to George VI Sound. Although it was discovered by Finn Ronne in 1940, only a few have mapped small sections in high resolution. #Polarstern contributes an area 5.5 times the size of #Bremen in unprecedented detail. #AWI
