Now the applications for the new bottom model become much more accessible and elegant, from providing boundary conditions for numerical models to derived navigation products and potentially a direct source for electronic chart display that could access and yield Digital Bathymetric Data Base for Navigation at a Variable Resolution DBDB-NV in real time. Modern systems can map swaths with widths up to several times the water depth. Because of the numerical method used to solve the equations of motion flow , there is a requirement that there be two grid points at which density is defined to determine the value of velocity between these two points.

Soundings for charting purposes are taken from generalised grids of the surface, and an uncertainty layer provides a quantitative value of quality for every cell in the bottom model. If it is not smoothed in these cases, the model becomes unstable and produces unrealistic numbers and will cease to run.
For example, a seamount would have a higher mass, and cause additional fbdbv to mound up above it. Much of the fidelity and resolution of the bottom, now surveyed with high-resolution sensors, is lost in the current charting processes. Rethinking the Traditional Model for Offshore Operations. It has a foundation layer of a two-minute global grid derived from satellite altimetry. Sample 2 minute bathymetry from NOAA.
Bathymetry
It contains grids of higher resolution data developed as a result of the production processes generally to support subsurface navigation in deep water.?? For these models, the bathymetry data may need to be smoothed before it is put on the model grid.
With the increased availability of high-resolution shallow-water collection systems, DBDB-V version 5. The Navy, and in particular, NAVO, spends considerable effort on obtaining accurate bathymetry, including in data poor areas. There are many challenges, but the central one is to provide the technical and systematic means for pooling the hydrographic data into homogeneous bottom models. In the interim, hydrographers seek to continually optimise the dynamics and kinematics that improve the positioning for navigation resources currently in orbit.
As an example, compare the real bathymetry with the bathymetry used in a 0. The traditional product of a hydrographic survey has been the smooth sheet, which is the result of a thinning process where navigationally significant soundings are selected to support chart production at a particular scale.
The differences in sea level can be 10's of centimeters to 10's of meters. This is because variations in mass cause variations in the gravitational dbcbv of the water, causing bumps in the ocean surface.
This allows bottom models to be developed at near full sensor resolution. In very fine scale models, such as coastal or turbulence models, the known bathymetry might need to be interpolated to the model gridpoints.

We have introduced the subject in only the most cursory fashion here, as NAVO offers extensive training in hydrographic science through other channels.
Don't miss the latest developments: When wave models get coupled with coastal circulation and sediment transport models, this will become an issue.
Ocean models use metric units for depth - either meters or kilometers; however, the Navy xbdbv commonly uses feet and fathoms. Modern systems can map swaths with widths up to several times the water depth. But wait, an ocean at rest will remain dbdbg rest.
The result is a shoal-biased model, which does not always result in the most accurate representation of the bottom.
So while GPS III is still in the offing for navigation precision, and multi-beam, LIDAR and interferometric side-scan data have exponentially increased the coverage and resolution of the sea bottom, the question remains — how are we rendering the spatial precision of multi-resolution geospatial data?
Ocean Business Ready for Business. While these techniques have resulted in a more complete picture of the earth's geoid, the resulting bathymetry may not be spatially dense enough for some finer-scale regional models.
Selected soundings from multi-beam surveys are those having the greatest systematic errors in the shoal direction. Now the applications for the new bottom model become much more accessible and elegant, from providing dbcbv conditions for numerical models to derived navigation products and potentially a direct source for electronic chart display that could access and yield Digital Bathymetric Data Base for Navigation at a Variable Resolution DBDB-NV in real time.
Multibeam arrays produce swaths of soundings along the ship's path. However, in the global and regional models we'll be discussing later, the known bathymetry is finer than the model grid.
