Abstract
The article is devoted to the currently urgent problem of the need to improve the accuracy of hydrographic surveys in the shallow parts of the shelf in order to build facilities of various scale levels. Considerable attention is paid to the method of conducting a bottom relief survey and the possibility of sharing for this mobile hydrographic and high-precision geodetic equipment. The problem of processing the data obtained during echo-sounding and their integration with geodetic survey data of the coastal area is described in detail. The results of the application of the described method in the waters of the Sea of Okhotsk are given. On the basis of the conducted research, the shortcomings and main advantages of hydrographic surveying by a multibeam echo sounder in combination with satellite geodetic equipment were revealed.
