COSEE Ocean Systems: News
Visualisation of the Invisible
Description: The Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) and the TU Dresden's Institute for Cartography present their joint three-dimensional map of the Antarctic continent and the seafloor of the Southern Ocean at this year's International Cartographic Conference in Rio de Janeiro. For the first time, the map simultaneously shows viewers three geographic layers: the Antarctic ice sheet, the landmasses it conceals, and the surrounding underwater landscape.
