Annual GEBCO Bathymetric Science Day
The GEBCO Bathymetric Science Day is held every year during GEBCO's meetings. It consists of oral presentations and poster displays and attendance is open to all. We welcome contributions on topics relating to ocean-floor mapping and its applications.
The Eighth GEBCO Science Day will be held on 8th October 2013 at the Istituto di Scienze Marine in Venice, Italy.
Access this year's Call for Papers 
(558 KB) and find how to submit an oral or poster presentation.
