Summary
Color relief map of the bathymetry of the part of Atlantic Ocean in which Air France Flight 447 crashed. The image shows two different data sets with different resolution. The areas showing detailed bathymetry were mapped using multibeam bathmetry sonar. The areas showing very generalized bathmetry were mapped using high-density satellite altimetry. This image was prepared from General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) compiled by the British Oceanographic Centre. The 30 arc-second gridded bathymetric data was downloaded from "Gridded bathymetric data sets" at <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="http://www.bodc.ac.uk/data/online_delivery/gebco/">http://www.bodc.ac.uk/data/online_delivery/gebco/</a>. Image was prepared using Global Mapper 8.0 and Adobe Illustrator CS2.
