The flattened seabed characters at the nearshore islands of Vietnam

Flattened seabed characters at the nearshore islands, namely Bach Long Vi, Con Co, Ly Son, Phu Quy, Hon Khoai and Tho Chu, were analysed based on depth contour map with 1 m vertical resolution and the application of ArcMap 10.4 software. Consequently, a series of seabed cross sections was automatically created by using the software, which provides the time-saving benefit and improves the scientific relevance. The result shows that flattened seabed characters of those islands were comparable in terms of general pattern, but still remained some distinctions depending on particular location.
