Introduction

To determine the foot of the continental slope we need bathymetric profiles. These profiles will be used as input to the foot of slope analysis tool in the next chapter. Bathymetric profiles can be imported from single beam or generated from bathymetric grids. In this tutorial we will use the atlantis seabed surface grid (similar to Etopo1) to generate bathymetric profiles. The project already contains several bathymetric profiles grouped into different areas. Our task is to complete the foot of slope analysis in region called East Sea. In this section we will generate the bathymetric profiles, give them a proper name and group them into a folder.
East Sea is the area in red

Generate more bathymetric profiles in the East Sea areaRepeat the steps in the previous exercise and generate a few more profiles in the same area. You should have 3-5 profiles in the area. |
