A highlight for us was hosting two dedicated #Seabed2030 sessions, bringing together partners from across industry, research, and international organisations to share perspectives on accelerating global seabed mapping.
Huge thanks to our many partner organisations who joined the discussions.
🌊 How can we manage and protect an ocean floor that remains largely unmapped?
Next Tuesday, 17 March, #Seabed2030 Center Head Larry Mayer will deliver the 27th Annual Roger Revelle Commemorative Lecture, hosted by The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
🪢 Every step forward reflects the work of countless individuals and organisations around the world to better understand the seafloor.
#Seabed2030 builds on this shared foundation of data, expertise, and collaboration.

🌊 New paper!
Deep Argo floats don’t just profile the deep ocean, they now improve global seafloor maps!
📈 Adding Deep Argo data to GEBCO boosts the Seabed 2030 effort.

This week, @npr.org’s Short Wave podcast featured @deepseadawn.bsky.social, Chief Scientist at Esri and member of #Seabed2030 Strategic Advisory Group.
One of fewer than 30 to reach Challenger Deep, Dawn spoke about how seafloor mapping is integral to so much of life above and below the water. 🌊
🇯🇵 Honoured to represent #Seabed2030 at Expo 2025 Osaka, where Director Jamie McMichael-Phillips joined experts at the Italian Pavilion for a two-day programme on Competitiveness & Sustainability in Maritime Activities.
He spoke on the role of seabed mapping in maritime resilience & data gaps. 🗺️
great interview from @npr.org

🗝️ Unearthing data sets that are locked away in archives is a key focus for project #Seabed2030 — and our partner EMODnet is a crucial part of this.
We’re grateful for their shared commitment to providing open access #bathymetric #data in pursuit of a healthier #ocean.
🌎 We welcomed thousands of visitors to the #Seabed2030 stand, discussed why #ocean #maps matter and welcomed input from partners @schmidtocean.bsky.social and The International SeaKeepers Society

“This is a revolution in how we understand our oceans,” said Haley Davis, Data Scientist at the International SeaKeepers Society.
Through an innovative collaboration with NOAA, SeaKeepers is accelerating the #seabed2030 initiative.

🇨🇦 We're back at the #bcit for another day of the #SaGES2025 conference.
Today Denis Hains presented the history, applications, organizational structure, and partnerships contributing to the #Seabed2030 mission!
Thank you Denis for inspiring next gen ocean mappers!
🇨🇦 Denis Hains of the #Seabed2030 Strategic Advisory Group is in Vancouver for the 2025 SaGES conference hosted by BCIT Geomatics Department.
We're excited to meet with students and educators to highlight the role of the #Hydrospatial domain and ocean #mapping in geomatics.
‼️The Nippon Foundation's Mitsuyuki Unno spoke on there being 2 kinds of ignorance:
1️⃣not knowing because someone already has data and won’t or can’t share it
2️⃣where the data simply does not yet exist
The foundation’s #Seabed2030 and @oceancensus.bsky.social programs address these gaps.
📢 We’re excited to see #Seabed2030 partners #Fugro and #EOMAP take their collaboration to the next level: www.fugro.com/news/press-r...
🌍 Proud to support #Seabed2030 through our nonprofit arm, @GreenwaterFdn.
Together with @CaladanOceanic, TCarta & Nippon Foundation-GEBCO, we helped deliver 18,119 sq km of coastal mapping data to the Philippines.

🗺️ As part of #Seabed2030, NIWA and SEA-KIT International surveyed over 22,000km² surrounding the volcano, including mapping 14,000km² of previously unmapped #seafloor
🌎 Touch. Rotate. Explore.
We were honoured to showcase the #Seabed2030 puffersphere – an interactive display of bathymetric maps – at The Nippon Foundation in the presence of Chairman Sasakawa and Executive Director Mr Unno, and GEBCO Guiding Committee Chair Evert Flier.

🌊 Ocean #mapping underpins the UNCLOS and BBNJ processes, which have to be based on real-world data to work well. We’re proud that #Seabed2030 and
GEBCO contribute maps to this effect. Governments cannot effectively manage what hasn’t been measured!
📡 Emerging #technology presents great opportunities for the #seabed mapping community.
Sensors, edge computing, and automated processing tools are among potential gamechangers.
Many are more readily available, empowering our partners in support of the #Seabed2030 mission.
Invigorating and inspiring talk by @drcatherineball.bsky.social.
A blistering tour of the future, via initiatives including @xprize.bsky.social, #Seabed2030, #BlueOrigin, #Fathomverse, plus drones, robot dogs and lab-grown salmon.
The technologies of the future are already here.
