The data are read in for the use of a depth-dependent water surface roughness scheme.\n\n**Data Details**\n\nFile is zipped directory topobath_30s which includes the following files:\n.txt: \nindex\n\n.bil:\n08401-09600.13201-14400 \n10801-12000.15601-16800 \n14401-15600.13201-14400 \n18001-19200.15601-16800 \n20401-21600.15601-16800 \n22801-24000.15601-16800 \n25201-26400.15601-16800\n08401-09600.14401-15600 \n10801-12000.16801-18000 \n14401-15600.14401-15600 \n18001-19200.16801-18000 \n20401-21600.16801-18000 \n22801-24000.16801-18000 \n25201-26400.16801-18000\n08401-09600.15601-16800 \n12001-13200.13201-14400 \n14401-15600.15601-16800 \n18001-19200.18001-19200 \n20401-21600.18001-19200 \n22801-24000.18001-19200 \n25201-26400.18001-19200\n08401-09600.16801-18000 \n12001-13200.14401-15600 \n14401-15600.16801-18000 \n18001-19200.19201-20400 \n20401-21600.19201-20400 \n22801-24000.19201-20400 \n26401-27600.16801-18000\n09601-10800.13201-14400 \n12001-13200.15601-16800 \n15601-16800.15601-16800 \n19201-20400.14401-15600 \n21601-22800.14401-15600 \n24001-25200.14401-15600 \n26401-27600.18001-19200\n09601-10800.14401-15600 \n12001-13200.16801-18000 \n15601-16800.16801-18000 \n19201-20400.15601-16800 \n21601-22800.15601-16800 \n24001-25200.15601-16800 \n27601-28800.16801-18000\n09601-10800.15601-16800 \n13201-14400.13201-14400 \n15601-16800.18001-19200 \n19201-20400.16801-18000 \n21601-22800.16801-18000 \n24001-25200.16801-18000 \n27601-28800.18001-19200\n09601-10800.16801-18000 \n13201-14400.14401-15600 \n16801-18000.16801-18000 \n19201-20400.18001-19200 \n21601-22800.18001-19200 \n24001-25200.18001-19200 \n10801-12000.13201-14400 \n13201-14400.15601-16800 \n16801-18000.18001-19200 \n19201-20400.19201-20400 \n21601-22800.19201-20400 \n24001-25200.19201-20400\n10801-12000.14401-15600 \n13201-14400.16801-18000 \n18001-19200.14401-15600 \n20401-21600.14401-15600 \n22801-24000.14401-15600 \n25201-26400.14401-15600\n\n**Data Quality**\n\nThe provided 30 arc second GEBCO bathymetry data were masked with WRF's 30-second land mask data and over-water measurements (negative in GEBCO) were converted to depth (positive number relative to water surface). The data were then compared to existing lake depth values in WRF where only minor differences were found.\n\n**Uncertainty**\n\nThe land mask data and bathymetry data are not from the same source but were collected in a similar fashion. Areas may exist where GEBCO is providing over-water information while WRF's land mask shows it is land, and vice-versa. These situations are accounted for by setting the depth to a default value where ever inconsistencies are found.\n\n**Constraints**\n\nThis data are currently set up for ease of use with WRF and proper care should be taken when trying to use the data for other purposes. It is recommended that the GEBCO data be downloaded directly in this case.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://a2e.energy.gov/data/mmc/bathymetry.z01.c0", "description": "Main dataset landing page with options to request/download", "format": "c0", "mediaType": "application/octet-stream", "title": "mmc/bathymetry.z01.c0"}], "identifier": "https://data.openei.org/submissions/4181", "issued": "2020-01-01T00:00:00Z", "keyword": ["Derived Data", "GEBCO bathymetry gridded data for North Sea / Baltic Sea", "Mesoscale-Microscale Coupling", "The measurement of depth of water in oceans, seas, or lakes", "a2e", "atmosphere to electrons", "bathymetry", "c0", "eere", "mmc", "weto", "wind", "z01"], "landingPage": "https://a2e.energy.gov/data/mmc/bathymetry.z01.c0", "license": "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/", "modified": "2021-10-11T00:00:00Z", "programCode": ["019:010"], "projectNumber": "67025", "projectTitle": "Wind Data Hub", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "Wind Energy Technologies Office (WETO)"}, "title": "The measurement of depth of water in oceans, seas, or lakes - GEBCO bathymetry gridded data for North Sea / Baltic Sea - Derived Data"}
