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…”

The mean age of the is ~64 million years old but is a relatively new thing (~65 years, ). Unfortunately, accurate mapping is a challenge. Just look how many people contributed to IBCSO version 2 bit.ly/3c6LFAx. And there is still a lot to do, filling the gaps of ibcso.org/ibsco-v2/. Do you want to expand that list? Just get in contact and provide bathymetry data south of 50°S! bit.ly/3PIFFwD . Easy as 1, 2, 3!
