Help explore the ocean from the comfort of home by donating.

Financial support is crucial for the success of our mission. By donating, you help fund various seafloor mapping expeditions and research initiatives, furthering our knowledge of the ocean floor. No matter the size, every donation brings us one step closer to mapping the gaps. 

How does your donation impact help to map the gaps?

  • Map the Gaps works with partners worldwide to map the ocean floor for actionable conservation information. Our efforts could multiply exponentially if we had our own equipment to bring to our partnerships. Not only would we be more self-sufficient, but we would also be able to speed up the process of mapping and achieve our goal to democratize ocean data.

  • Your donations support our high-level computing by assisting in providing computing and human resources to get the job done.

  • It takes time and effort to bring together the best of the best in ocean mapping, and your gifts allow us to continue to make the connections between experts and mapping opportunities, thereby democratizing and increasing successful ocean mapping.

  • We are the only global nonprofit focused on ocean floor mapping and committed to providing open-access data for conservation. We have the largest network of experts in the field of ocean mapping from our relationship with Nippon Foundation/GEBCO Training Program alumni and we are able to provide access to the best experts and practitioners. Our future depends on our ability to visualize and understand the sea floor and your investment in MTG translates to tangible, critical, and accessible data procurement.
