| Description | |
| Abstract | BASE Platform will provide satellite derived bathymetry data on a global scale using tidal modelling and crowdsourced data collection techniques to enhance accuracy. The project will achieve this by fulfilling the following aims:
Refine existing techniques in satellite derived and crowd sourced bathymetry
Develop methods and tools for merging data from these sources
Integrating with tidal modelling for reducing the depths to the local chart datum
Making data available through data portals
Working with end users of bathymetric data to carry out trials in a number of areas, and assess the results with them
