Big shoutout to Meredith Payne for the ArcGIS Bathymetry Webinar she hosted last week! TCarta was proud that our Trident Tools Toolbox was highlighted as a useful tool for deriving bathymetric depths.

About us
TCarta is the world's foremost supplier of bathymetric data for near-shore areas around the world. Our data fill the gap between low-resolution data sets and the highly accurate but limited coverage provided by hydrographic surveys. TCarta data provide a level of detail that approaches that of survey data, but at a fraction of the cost. Our coverage area extends over the world's entire littoral zone, from the shoreline to the edge of the continental shelf. Our data are used in a variety of industries; oil & gas exploration and production, environmental research, archaeology, telecommunications, fishing, and many others.

“In addition to posing no danger to personnel, equipment, or coastal environments, satellites are more cost effective than ship-borne sonar or airborne laser scanning because they acquire image data over large regions in seconds” Read more about TCarta's Satellite-Based Solution to Ship Groundings in Coastal Waters on LinkedIn or here: https://lnkd.in/gXsw-PVg #Hydrospatial #SDB #Oman www.tcarta.com

"This process [SDB] is key where traditional surveys using vessels or aircraft are not feasible due to geopolitical tensions or environmental risks. SDB offers a cost-effective and safe alternative, reducing the need for physical surveys." Read this post from SkyFi about one way SDB can be used to help better current practices and procedures. TCarta is always working to improve and expand on our processes/products so check out our site for the latest news or find us on ESRI, Global Mapper, NOAA Marketplace, and Grist Mill. #SDB #Hydrospatial www.tcarta.com
Satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB) uses satellite imagery to map the underwater terrain, providing critical data in shallow waters. By analyzing light reflection from the seafloor, companies like our partner TCarta can estimate water depths with great accuracy. This process is key where traditional surveys using vessels or aircraft are not feasible due to geopolitical tensions or environmental risks. SDB offers a cost-effective and safe alternative, reducing the need for physical surveys. At #SabinaShoal, located in the contested South China Sea, the value of SDB is clear. This region is not only politically sensitive but also poses real risks to #navigation. Ships passing through the area face the danger of running aground on submerged reefs, which are difficult to detect without accurate data. A Philippine vessel, for example, could easily sail into one of these shallow ridges, causing a major incident. Our SDB map shows these hazards with a precision that helps prevent accidents and ensures safe passage. Beyond navigation, and #environmental impact is another concern. In the South China Sea, entire reefs have been destroyed or converted into military bases, causing irreversible damage to marine ecosystems. Having accurate bathymetric data allows us to monitor these sensitive environments and better understand how human activity is altering the region. Satellite-derived bathymetry will soon be available on our platform, but if you need it today, don’t hesitate to contact us for immediate access.

Lakebed 2030 wrapped up last week and TCarta was delighted to hear lots of good discussion around the topic of SDB, from other presenters as well as our own. Kyle Goodrich, TCarta's President and Founder, spoke about "Great Lakes Satellite Derived Bathymetry - Successes, Failures, and New Approaches" on Wednesday, a slide from the presentation is shown below. #hydrospatial #Lakebed2030 #SDB www.tcarta.com

Thank you John Marshall for this great review of SDB's capabilities. We are proud to provide data in previously unmapped/uncharted areas! John could not be more right, "SDB offers lower costs, does not require site access, and can be produced globally." Please contact us here if you have a project you would like to discuss: https://lnkd.in/e6feqwBb
Much of the Arctic Ocean remains poorly mapped, which is especially critical in shallow waters. Only 15.8% of Canadian Arctic waters have been adequately surveyed, a significant concern for our government clients in the Royal Canadian Navy | Marine royale canadienne and the Fisheries and Oceans Canada / Pêches et Océans Canada Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS). Pacific Geomatics (PacGeo) recently completed a project for American West Metals Ltd. on Somerset Island, NU. This included 2m Satellite-Derived Bathymetry (SDB) by TCarta of Aston Bay, which was previously uncharted with no existing navigation information. Satellite-Derived Bathymetry (SDB) from TCarta can determine depths of up to 20m, providing much-needed insight for operations in these waters. SDB offers lower costs, does not require site access, and can be produced globally. SDB has the potential to significantly aid in mapping the Canadian Arctic for safe navigation, national security, and natural resource exploration. Additionally, it can support environmental monitoring, scientific research, and the development of infrastructure in these remote and challenging regions.

Big thank you to David Bautista, Ross Smith, and Michaela Barnes for being heroes of the TCarta, MI, & Seabed2030 SDB internship this summer! The loads of shout outs we received from the students about these expert trainers only proves what we already knew about our rockstar employees! #Seabed2030 #SDB #MI #MarineInstitute www.tcarta.com

TCarta reposted this
👏 TCarta, Seabed 2030, and the Fisheries and Marine Institute of Memorial University of Newfoundland’s summer interns have accomplished an incredible feat - producing 40,000 km² of Satellite Derived Bathymetry (SDB) in just eight weeks! Their efforts spanned critical regions, including the Somali coastline and the Galapagos. This data is a significant contribution to Seabed 2030’s mission. 🗺 Find out more about what the students got up to and the skills they acquired: https://lnkd.in/eQnHtDhp #SDB #Hydrospatial #OceanMapping

Celebrating the students from the COMIT | Center for Ocean Mapping and Innovative Technologies at University of South Florida for completing their Trident Tools SDB training! Thanks to Alec Biles and David Bautista for leading the workshop, shown below in The Maritime and Defense Technology Hub (Hub) in the St. Pete Innovation District, and thanks to the students for their focus and dedication. We will look forward to seeing evidence of SDB applications in your future #hydrographic studies and careers! #RemoteSensing #SDB #Workshop www.tcarta.com
