VICTOR Vescovo's marine technology development company Caladan Oceanic has provided significant financial support and guidance to Greenwater Foundation to source new mapping data of the seafloor in coastal areas of the Philippines and Sulu Sea, using Satellite-Derived Bathymetry .This initiative will support the mission of The Nippon Foundation -Gebco Seabed 2030 Project, which aims to compile a map of the entire seafloor by the year 2030.
Satellite-Derived Bathymetry allows researchers to identify any hazards such as channels, sand bars and reefs and therefore is essential for safe passage, helping avoid fatalities. The project, to be completed by Dec. 25, contributed 18,119.84 square kilometers to the government of the Philippines and Sulu Sea at an average resolution of 10 meters. The data was provided to Deo Florence Onda, Associate Professor and University of the Philippines Scientist III, The Marine Science Institute.This will be used to provide more awareness about potential coastal hazards, enable more precise fisheries and resource management and for other marine scientific uses.
