Summary

Description
English: Color relief map of the bathymetry of the part of Atlantic Ocean in which Air France Flight 447 crashed. The image shows two different data sets with different resolution. The areas showing detailed bathymetry were mapped using multibeam bathmetry sonar. The areas showing very generalized bathmetry were mapped using high-density satellite altimetry. This image was prepared from General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) compiled by the British Oceanographic Centre. The 30 arc-second gridded bathymetric data was downloaded from "Gridded bathymetric data sets" at http://www.bodc.ac.uk/data/online_delivery/gebco/. Image was prepared using Global Mapper 8.0 and Adobe Illustrator CS2.

Français : Relief bathymétrique en couleur de la portion de l'océan Atlantique dans laquelle a disparu le vol Air France 447. L'image montre deux ensembles de données avec des résolutions différentes. Les zones de bathymétrie de détail ont été cartographiées à l'aide d'un sonar multifaisceaux. Les zones montrant la bathymétrie d'ensemble ont été relevées par un radar altimétrique de haute précision embarqué sur un satellite.
Português: Um mapa batimétrico de parte do Oceano Atlântico na região onde o Voo Air France 447 desapareceu. A imagem mostra dois conjuntos distintos de dados com resoluções diferentes. A área que mostra a batimetria detalhada, mais nítida, foi feita utilizando sonares batimétricos. A área mostrando dados batimétricos mais generalizados foram feitos utilizando satélites altimétricos de alta densidade. Este mapa foi preparado com base na Tabela Geral Batimétrica dos Oceanos (GEBCO, da sigla em inglês) feita pelo Centro Britânico de Oceanografia. Os dados foram gravados de http://www.bodc.ac.uk/data/online_delivery/gebco/. A imagem foi feita utilizando o software Global Mapper 8.0 e o Adobe Illustrator CS2.
