Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list (do join!) and the blog. Please also join the workgroup mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any constable for help, too. Me, for instance! Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! Ruth Ifcher 21:27, 6 September 2008 (CDT)

Welcome!

Some of my computer systems work supports commercial fishing, so there's some not terribly exotic bottom mapping as well as use of existing bathymetric charts. The challenge usually is making the bottom mapping consistent with surface navigation.

You might find geospatial intelligence of interest. I've done some introductory articles on marine navigation, but I'm by no means a specialist in geodesy or geographic information systems.
