Ocean Mapping Data and Information System (OMDIS)

Ocean Mapping Data and Information System (OMDIS) is a comprehensive digital platform that manages and shares detailed information collected from surveys of the ocean floor. It combines data from various sources like sonar, satellite images, and underwater vehicles to create accurate maps of seafloor features. OMDIS enables scientists, engineers, and policymakers to access and analyze this data for purposes such as navigation safety, marine research, resource exploration, and environmental protection. Essentially, it organizes complex underwater mapping data into an accessible system that supports informed decision-making about the ocean's depths.
