Mapping Finland’s ocean floor

Accurate nautical charts ensure safe navigation and better voyage planning. These are graphic representations of a maritime area and coastal regions, showing depths of water and heights of land, details of the seabed and the coastline, navigational threats, and structures, such as harbours.

Nautical charts are essential tools for marine navigation, Meritaito Ltd, a leading Finnish marine survey service and infrastructure management company, produces official nautical charts for safe navigation in Finnish waters. The company has decades of experience in a comprehensive range of services in:

  1. Maintenance of waterways
  2. Use and maintenance of canals
  3. Hydrographic surveying services
  4. Hydraulic engineering
  5. Waterways design and manufacturing of aids to navigation
  6. Oil spill response services.

Meritaito was founded in 2010 when the waterways functions of the Finnish Maritime Administration, the Finnish Rail Administration and the Finnish Road Administration merged into the Finnish Transport Agency (FTA). The FTA is a government agency operating under the authority of the Ministry of Transport and Communications; its main responsibility is the maintenance and development of the transport system overseen by the government.
