Overview
Satellite Derived Bathymetry (SDB) is a lower cost alternative to marine surveys and is widely used for coastal and hydrodynamic modeling, remote reconnaissance and operational planning. Produced from ESA’s Sentinel-2 A/B imagery, 10 meter resolution Satellite Derived Bathymetry is a highly accurate and an extremely cost effective bathymetry product that is readily available or can be rapidly produced in clear, shallow water regions. The surfaces are calibrated and validated using ICESat-2 LiDAR, singlebeam and multibeam data, and nautical charts where available.
________________________________
Many areas are available for immediate licensing from the TCarta SDB Bathymetry Information System (BIS) catalogue or projects can be commissioned in clear, shallow water regions by submitting your area of interest to TCarta HERE.
USES: Satellite Derived Bathymetry (SDB) is a lower cost alternative to marine surveys and much higher resolution than ETOPO and GEBCO datasets.
