With growing demand of hydrographic data to support offshore work instead of the traditional nautical charting, Ingham's book is one of the rare text books published for the publics in hydrography.

It contains almost everything from the technical aspects to the law and legal view of private hydrographic surveyor. Nevertheless, to some extent, this book is merely an introduction to the hydrographic science and practice.

Some says -name does sell. Well, this book should be retitled with marine geomatic for surveyor and engineer as it indeed covers hydrographic survey practice in modern era with electronic sensors and equipment such as the multibeam, GPS, etc.

Again, if you are looking for a book in hydrographic practice and science. You won't get many of them. Commander Ingham's book is definitely the one you should read.
