Ours is a water planet, with over 70 percent of its surface covered by oceans. Mapping them with maximum precision has always been a challenge, such that, even today, we have better maps of Mars than of our own oceans. Part of the problem is that even the most detailed two-dimensional map only gives us a tiny sliver of the picture. The ocean is three-dimensional. Without a close picture of its varying depths and the contours of the seafloor, we’re not getting anything close to a complete image. But creating such a map is still a challenge, one that the United Nations Seabed 2030 aims to meet by creating a complete bathymetric ocean map by the end of the decade. In this animated map, we highlight the deepest spots in the briny deep that surrounds us.
