How to Get Involved

Welcome to the world of crowdsourced bathymetry (CSB), where collective efforts can help shape our understanding of the depths in our coastal zones, oceans, lakes, and waterways. This approach harnesses the power of individuals and organizations worldwide to contribute to and create improved bathymetric maps and products.  Join our crowdsourced bathymetry effort and contribute to the exploration of the world's oceans like never before! We invite scientists and researchers, navigators, fishers, like-minded enthusiasts, and anyone with a passion for the mysteries that lie beneath the waves. Together, we can help create a comprehensive and accurate map of the ocean floor, unlocking valuable insights into marine ecosystems, geological processes, and potential resources. By pooling our collective knowledge and data, we can accelerate scientific discovery and conservation efforts. Whether you have access to specialized equipment or are simply an avid sailor, your contributions can make a difference.
