Ocean Contour Maps

Our Ocean Contour Maps page features over 500 bottom contour maps that cover the entire U.S. for both the Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean, as well as the Gulf of Mexico. While not suitable for navigational purposes, these maps show "structure" (depths, bottom contours, dropoffs, etc.) of the ocean. Ocean bottom topography, also known as bathymetry, is the measurement of the depth of large bodies of water.

To access the grid images simply click on one of the outlined volumes in the map.

Note: The gridded contour maps you find here are provided by the National Geophysical Data Center, and merge the US Geological Survey 3-arc-second DEMs with a vast compilation of hydrographic soundings collected by the National Ocean Service and various academic institutions.
