Ocean Mapping Expedition

An Ocean Mapping Expedition is a scientific mission aimed at exploring and charting the ocean’s depths. Using advanced technologies like sonar, underwater robots, and satellites, researchers collect detailed data about seabed features, underwater topography, and ecosystems. This information helps improve navigation safety, understand marine environments, and support scientific research on climate change and biodiversity. Such expeditions often involve international collaboration and sophisticated equipment to uncover the largely uncharted and mysterious portions of our planet’s oceans, providing valuable insights into the underwater world that covers over 70% of Earth’s surface.
