What will I learn?
This Bathymetry Course teaches a complete practical process for planning, collecting, processing, and sharing top-quality depth data for harbours and coastlines. You will cover survey planning, choosing sensors, fixing motion and tide errors, managing sound speed, creating grids, quality checks, and uncertainty checks. Then, produce clear charts, digital elevation models, reports, and metadata that follow current hydrographic rules and aid safe navigation plus coastal developments.
