Results of the hydrographic survey

The recorded depths are processed into depth models. The data is processed, checked and released in the hydrographic survey database (SDB). These hydrographic survey results are passed on to various customers. Nautical cartography at the BSH uses the released data for further processing in the nautical charts.
