Oceans cover 361M km^2. So if we built 13,333 drones with a failure rate of 25% and they map at a rate of 50 km^2/day at a higher column depth with active sonar, it would take approximately 2 years

Also don’t need to do the entire ocean; there are specific routes and zones we care about the most, can easily prioritize those.

Indeed. It can certainly be accomplished.
