Published purpose

With this project, the company will turn its prototype satellite-derived bathymetry into an operational product. Hydrographic survey companies can use maps of water depth to plan their surveys and avoid grounding their vessels in shallow water, engineering firms can use them to plan building of parts and shoreline protection, and shipping companies can use them in addition to official charts to safely navigate poorly charted waters of the Canadian Arctic. The need for information on water depth is growing as sea ice melts and an increasing number of vessels visit and cross Arctic waters each summer and fall.
