When exploring little-known regions of the ocean, we often need to create our own maps to plan efficient and safe operations. Join us as we go #BeyondtheWow and learn all about deep sea mapping (aka bathymetry) with this video. Travel from the bottom of trenches to the top of seamounts and learn five fun facts about how and why we create underwater maps and their importance to ocean exploration.
