Great Glen Fault & Loch Ness: 2D Depth-Sounder Profile

2D length-profile and live sonar cross-section of the Great Glen fault trough that holds Loch Ness, driven by the same trough-floor and bed-elevation formulas as the 3D terrain model.

This 2D companion reuses the exact trough-floor and bed-elevation formulas from the 3D Great Glen model, drawn instead as a readable length-profile from Fort Augustus to Inverness plus a live transverse sonar cross-section at the scan point — the same depth-sounder view the 3D lab tucks into a side panel, now the main display.
