I came across this the other day and wanted to share.

The Dorset Wildlife Trust commissioned a seabed survey from the West side of Portland to Swanage bay. All of the sonar images can be viewed in Google Earth. It shows the relief of the seabed, depth and some cross-sectional pictures from divers. It even has diver reports and shipwrecks marked on it. I reckon it could be useful for Planning dives, or recording what you caught and where.

To view the Doris map you first need Google Earth on your computer.
Then open the map in google earth and your set to go.

Let me know how you get on with it.
