  Map showing error of how well the DEM grid represents the bathymetric soundings it was created from.

Figure 7. Error values representing the difference between the bathymetry grid (DEM) at each sample point (positive values – grid is deeper than soundings; negative values – grid is shallower than soundings). White or gray symbols represent error of +/- 0.25 centimeters. [Click to enlarge]
