Mapping the entire ocean floor needs more than just a satellite. It needs a highly sophisticated underwater submarine such as the Autosub6000. Unknown to most of us, the Autosub6000 has been mapping North Atlantic's Porcupine Abyssal Plain and taking more than half a million pictures where it will be collated and stitched together in the long run to form a unified view map of the PAP. The scientists at the National Geographic Centre are hoping that the images captured by its Autosub6000 robot will give them vital information about the effects of climate change on the ocean floor, as well as the wildlife thriving in the said area.
