Google has announced a Google Ocean theme to be viewed in Google Earth. Dive down into the deep and see a world hidden for most people. Until that happens we will have to do with Virtual Ocean.

Virtual Ocean integrates the GeoMapApp tool suite with the NASA World Wind 3-D earth browser to create a powerful new platform for interdisciplinary research and education.

The Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) synthesis developed by the Marine Geoscience Data System (MGDS) is the primary base map for Virtual Ocean, providing access to a comprehensive multi-resolution compilation of satellite altimetry and multibeam bathymetry data. Several MGDS data sets are accessible in Virtual Ocean through live OGC-standard Web services. Options are also provided for users to import their own data sets.

Visit the Help Page for more information on how to use Virtual Ocean.
