Bluewater Supermap - You no longer have to pay for satellite services that your tax dollars have already paid for!!
Bluewater Supermap is a GIS based Offshore Data System. What does that mean? Think Google Maps for the ocean
Our setup is based on a GIS system.
(To find out what GIS is...look here. http://www.gis.com/whatisgis/ )
What you see in Supermap is visual representations of database information. For the folks that are not used to this....lets talk about a spread sheet with Lat, Long, Temp. What GIS does in geo-reference the Temp data (or current or Clor or whatever layer you have open) to this specific Lat and Long. That is why when you mouse over one of our SSTs you have to stop and wait a second for it to display the temp. It is calling a database for that specific lat and long and then displaying it. That is why it is SOOO much more accurate than anything most folks have ever seen. It takes into account things like the curvature of the earth and things like projection of the data (Think flat maps and a round earth).
Bottom Line = What you see in Bluewater SuperMap has VERY HIGH ACURRACY!
