Full-screen maps with region and date. US: East Coast, Gulf & Caribbean, West Coast, Hawaii. Plus Caribbean Sea, Australia (5 regions), North Sea, New Zealand, Italy (3 coasts), Iberian Coast, Western Mediterranean, English Channel & Celtic Sea, Atlantic Approaches.
Choose your region, pick a date, and load the layer. Adjust ranges to highlight breaks. Waypoints appear on every ocean map—drop waypoints on SST breaks, then compare the same spots on Chlorophyll, Water Clarity, and Currents.
24-hour temp data
Adjustable temperature range (e.g. 40°F–95°F or °C). Play through the last 5 days of images. Sample temperature at map center; Set Inlet for distance from inlet. Waypoints on map.
Daily temp (unfiltered)
Same as Cloud Corrected but unfiltered daily SST. Same region, date, temp range, 5-day play, center sampling, inlet, waypoints.
Algae concentration data
Adjustable range in mg/m³. Chlorophyll overlay with crosshair, center sample, inlet, waypoints. Compare with SST waypoints on the same maps.
Sea surface height
Sea surface height overlay. Same map UX with center and waypoints.
Underwater visibility
Water clarity (visibility) overlay. Same map UX.
Ocean current velocity
Ocean current velocity overlay (e.g. Copernicus). Waypoints, inlet, center.
One set of waypoints across all ocean layers. Add on map, manage in one place, export to GPX.
From home
List of all waypoints; edit, delete, export as GPX. On ocean maps (SST, Chlorophyll, Water Clarity, Currents): add waypoint at map center; tap marker to see name. Same waypoints on every layer.
