SMMS: Bathymetry (1960 to 2020)

Description

Definition: ‘Bathymetry’ means the measurement of the topographical shape of the bottom of a body of water. The term is also often used – analogously to the word ‘topography’ – as a synonym for the shape of the bottom of the water. Waters in this context are seas, rivers or closed inland waters. Within the framework of the SMMS project, bathymetric data sets are those that represent the height distribution in the German Bight including the estuaries of the Ems, Weser and Elbe. Due to morphological activities of the aquatic soil, such a bathymetric model is only valid for a certain period or time. Data generation: The basis for bathymetric products are gridded bathymetric models, which are created using the Functional Soil Model, a data-based hindcast simulation model, using spatiotemporal interpolation methods from a database of sea and land surveys of various data types. For the years 1960-2020, a rasterized bathymetric model in 10 m resolution is provided for the German Bight. Product: A 10 m grid of the German Bight valid on 01.07. for the year, whereby the height is stored at each grid node. The product is provided in GeoTiff format along with source maps (before and after, shapefiles).
