UC Santa Barbara unveils tool simplifying ocean data mapping

Researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara have introduced a new tool that makes mapping the ocean far easier. Data such as seafloor depth, the location of underwater mountains, and sea surface temperatures already exists, but pulling it together from different sources has traditionally required considerable time and computer coding. The new tool consolidates that process, making oceanographic information far more accessible to researchers.
Why now: The tool removes a longstanding technical barrier for scientists who need combined ocean data from multiple sources.
