Seascape Alaska: A Regional Coastal and Ocean Mapping Campaign

The U.S. waters off of Alaska are a vital part of the global navigation system and are also host to extensive fisheries and other resources, but as of January 2022, 69% of these waters are unmapped.

This project seeks to acquire and deliver a high-resolution digital representation of the seafloor beneath these waters to benefit a wide-range of both domestic and international stakeholders that depend on these data.

This project brings government and non-government sectors together to share mapping plans and advance technical innovations to more efficiently map and characterize the area in support of Seabed 2030.
