Areas mapped using high-resolution bathymetric surveys as of February 2008
 

This map shows seafloor areas mapped using high-resolution bathymetric surveys as of February 2008. In most areas, geological and biological data still need to be collected in order to produce habitat maps.

Survey areas are indicated with letters. Roll your mouse over the map to see information about each survey area. Orange areas are in U.S. waters, and yellow areas are in Canadian waters.
