Topographic Map Ocean Floor. The following features are shown at example depths to scale, though each feature has a considerable range at which it may occur: continental shelf (300 feet), continental slope (300-10,000 feet), abyssal plain (>10,000 feet), abyssal hill (3,000 feet up from the abyssal plain), seamount (6,000 feet. This graphic shows several ocean floor features on a scale from 0-35,000 feet below sea level

NCEI and the IHO Data Center for Digital Bathymetry (DCDB) archive and share depth data acquired by hydrographic, oceanographic, and industry vessels and platforms during surveys or while on passage Yet cartographers still searched for ways to include information about the ocean in their maps.
. For most of human history, maps were hand-drawn and considered quite artistic The following features are shown at example depths to scale, though each feature has a considerable range at which it may occur: continental shelf (300 feet), continental slope (300-10,000 feet), abyssal plain (>10,000 feet), abyssal hill (3,000 feet up from the abyssal plain), seamount (6,000 feet.
