This is a video from my 3D Topological Earth Blender Course at https://sbcode.net/topoearth/
After progressing in the course quite a bit, we can also show the sea floor heights by using images created from GEBCO data.
GEBCO stands for "General_Bathymetric_Chart_of_the_Oceans" and more information can be seen here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Bathymetric_Chart_of_the_Oceans
In the video, I also demonstrate the difference between using images with 8bit values versus 16bit bit values when using textures in the Blender displacement modifier.
