"Echometre" record obtained by the French liner S.S

“Echometre” record obtained by the French liner S.S. De Grasse when crossing over the head of a canyon on Georges Bank. Such records reinforced the view that vessels could navigate by using bathymetry. Accordingly, the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey embarked on a project to map the continental slopes and shelves to help guide mariners into United States ports.
