Mapping the seafloor can be a complicated process- from gathering data to visually representing it, scientists work with engineers, artists, and navigators to ensure the best information is available. In this video, Science Communication Fellow, Illustrator, and Cartographer Abrian Curington explains cartography, hydrography, and other seafloor mapping terms.

Nautilus expeditions often take the opportunity to gather high-resolution data of the seafloor to provide scientists with a better understanding of the world’s oceans. This enables responsible decision-making regarding the management and maintenance of our planet. Nautilus is a participant in the Nippon Foundation-GEBCO Seabed 2030 project aiding in the effort to map 100% of Earth’s seafloor at a high resolution by the end of the decade.
