4 Overall objectives The objective is to assemble data from public and private organisations relating to the state of sea basins; processing them into interoperable formats which includes agreed standards, assessments of their accuracy and precision, making them available and creating data products; 4 EMODnet November 16, 2017

5 Bathymetry

6 Types of data Water depth (Referring to the Lowest Astronomical Tide LAT) in gridded form on a DTM grid of 1/8 * 1/8 arc minute (ca 230 * 230 m) - Minimum cell water depth - Maximum cell water depth - Average cell water depth - Standard deviation of cell water depth - Number of values used for interpolation of depth Products: Depth contours Mean depth full coverage with land coverage Mean depth in multi colour Mean depth rainbow colour ramp Source references Raw data: Plummet, single beam, multibeam echosoundings, LIDAR data
