==== Description ====
The EMODnet data products are based on the continuous average depth grid of one-sixteenth arc-minute. This grid is based on three source types: Individual bathymetric surveys, composite digital terrain data (cDTM) and Satellite-Derived Bathymetry. The latter two have been used whenever the actual survey data was unavailable for direct processing by the EMODnet partners. Whenever data were unavailable GEBCO data has been used to fill in the gaps.

The data was then clipped to the area of interest and classified it using the depth ranges mentioned above in the "types" section.
 
== Digitwin Edition ==
In the digitwin edition there is an additional bathymetry layer. This layer is a sub-set of the bathymetry layer already present from Emodnet (see North Sea Basic Edition on top). Due to memory restrictions, limiting the coverage of the layer we are able to show more detailled information. This layer has 25m resolution and can now be displayed at 250m resolution in the MSP Challenge instead of 1,5km.

Description

Bathymetry is the underwater equivalent to hypsometry or topography. Bathymetric (or hydrographic) charts are typically produced to support safety of surface or sub-surface navigation, and usually show seafloor relief or terrain as contour lines (called depth contours or isobaths).

MSP Challenge

The detail of the bathymetric data in the MSP Challenge is not suitable for navigation. Bathymetry in the MSP Challenge is a static data layer providing general indications of water depth in a particular sea area.
