Updating your Mac: We will soon be releasing GeoMapAppVG which includes WorldWind 3-D visualization. WARNING: To use this on a Mac, when you upgrade to Leopard 10.5.2 do not install the new graphics update (February 2008 - http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/leopardgraphicsupdate10.html) because it will break your Java!  We are currently trying to find out if this particular update can be uninstalled and if steps are being taken to correct the problem.

GeoMapApp is a data exploration and visualization tool that is continually being expanded as part of the Marine Geoscience Data System.  GeoMapApp is an integrated mapping application developed at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. It is a Java™ application that may be freely downloaded from www.geomapapp.org, and will run on all platforms with a Java Runtime Environment (standard or available for Windows, MacOSX, Solaris and Linux). Learn more about GeoMapApp by reading about GeoMapApp, the Help pages, and the Development History .

Global DEM

GeoMapApp is your window into a global, multi-resolution digital elevation model. The GMRT includes high resolution (~100 m node spacing) topography from multibeam data for ocean areas and SRTM - Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (http://www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm/) - over land.

Map Functions

• Zoom in/out, scroll, double-click to center (new function!)
• Pan (new function!)
• Use "Mask" to highlight areas with high resolution data.
• Save the map you create, as an image or grid, several format choices

Grid Functions

• Load a grid for the current view, save the grid
• Make a profile (profile window pops up)
• Customize the map with an interactive grid options tool
• Make 3D perspective images
• Elevation, gravity and geoid grids, newest Smith and Sandwell predicted topography and gravity
• Import your grid

Other Functions

• Map and display many data sets, including seismic reflection profiles, geochemical analyses, seismicity, and shipboard measurements.
• Import your own data and display it on the map as an image, stations or tracks.
