Topographic Map Ocean Floor. National Ocean Service (NOS) Office of Coast Survey U.S The SWOT satellite (Surface Water and Ocean Topography), launched into orbit in 2022 and the result of the collaboration between NASA and the French National Center for Space Studies (CNES), allowed you to get a new one very detailed map of the ocean floor.This was possible thanks to its particularly advanced technology, which overcomes the limits of previous satellites dedicated to ocean.

The seafloor has distinct features and characteristics that help us better understand Earth's current and past conditions, potential resources, and natural hazards The USGS conducts high-resolution mapping to describe the physical features of the ocean floor, as well as the geologic layers and structure beneath it.
This map is designed to be used as a basemap by marine GIS professionals and as a reference map by anyone interested in ocean data.
