Use Cases
- Analyze bathymetric data to model seafloor topography and identify navigational hazards in The Roads and Holm Channel.
- Correlate geological sample data with bathymetric readings to study seabed composition.
- Use the survey's spatial coverage (64 sq km) and IHO S44 standard for hydrographic chart validation and updates.
