Fathoming the depths

摘要

In January, the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) signed an agreement with the government of Belize to survey the nation's ports and access channels. Throughout February, three survey craft will bounce high-frequency sonar around the nation's ports and access channels to generate a hydrographic 3D model of the underwater geography, with a view to creating the first electronic navigational charts (ENCs) in the region.
