Global bathymetry & topography are two of the most extensively used types of scientific data for a wide variety of scientific, practical, & artistic applications. Global relief forms a framework for visualization of other types of data & information, and provides boundary conditions for environmental modelling.

Description
DigBath250 Vector attributed digital bathymetry of UK and adjacent European waters DigBath250 - BGS published map dataset DigBath250 proposed sectors Click on these images to view the relevant map in more detail. Digital maps home The British Geological Survey (BGS) has begun the compilation and production of a vector attributed digital bathymetry of UK and adjacent European waters. The product is known as DigBath250. Its purpose is to provide a regional scale digital bathymetry as a primary dataset for geographic information systems (GIS), mapping and modelling of the seabed and sub-seabed, as well as tidal, current and water column modelling. It is available in standard GIS and CAD formats.
