The GEBCO Symposium brings together international experts to discuss innovative technologies and approaches that are pushing the boundaries of ocean floor mapping.
The 2023 Map the Gaps Symposium and Crowdsouced Bathymetry Spotlight was held 7- 8 November 2023 in Monaco. Watch a recording of the event on YouTube.
Historically called the GEBCO Science Day, the name was changed in 2017 to reflect the growing desire to incorporate industry, makers and emerging innovators pursuing change for ocean mapping. Find out more about previous Symposium events.
The Symposium was held at the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton, UK (Oct. 26 - Oct. 28, 2022), as a hybrid event: in-person and livestreamed.
It included a number of sessions:
Access presentations from the Symposium via YouTube.
The Symposium was held virtually from Nairobi, Kenya Nov. 30 - Dec. 3, 2021.
It included presentations on topics such as:
Access presentations from the Symposium via YouTube.
The symposium was held as a virtual event as part of GEBCO's annual week of meetings, co-organized by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO, the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO), and the French Hydrographic and Oceanographic Service of the navy (SHOM), January 2021.
