information to conduct all sorts of science, all sorts of modeling. >> reporter: this mission is underway in various parts of the world. but so far just 20% of the world's ocean floor has been mapped. that's the equivalent of a continent of asia and africa. but what still needs to be mapped is almost double the land mass of all of the earth's continent. it's estimated it will cost 3 to $5 billion to complete the mission. the technology exists, but the financial appetite to do it is not robust. countries, militaries and private entities like oil and gas companies map areas central to their work at sea but are not always willing to share the data. the leaders of the seabed 2030 mission are now calling on every day citizens. >> whether you're a master of a bulk carrier, whether you're a yaht skipper, whether you're a ferry boat captain, then you're in a position to gather data to help us chart the seabed.
