Drying height
 | This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (July 2025) |
On a nautical chart, the drying height[1] is the vertical distance of the seabed that is exposed by the tide, above the sea water level at the lowest astronomical tide.
On admiralty charts a drying height is distinguished from a depth by being underlined.
