- Adding to searching by area (Quick Search), users can retrieve data by period, research vessels, cruise ID, submersibles, dive numbers and variables (water temperature, current speed/direction, etc.) simultaneously (Advanced Search).
- Zooming up the map window, names of sea floor features will be shown.
