Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open bathymetry map that combines national Australian coverage, detailed regional surveys, and deep-ocean terrain in one continuous view.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-15 issue.

Field notes

The map combines Geoscience Australia’s AusBathyTopo grid with higher-resolution AusSeabed material, published local surveys, and GEBCO beyond the shelf. Its interface exposes depth through pointer readouts and real contour intervals, while the page says colour, hillshade, and optional 3D terrain all derive from the same elevation grid. Coverage claims include more than 1,500 source surveys, regional detail down to 30 m, and local survey inputs reaching 0.5 m.
