This site lets you explore many popular environmental datasets using the ODV-online browser tool. ODV-online mimics the interface of the Ocean Data View desktop software, and is operated like ODV. If you are a new user, please see the ODV-online getting started document or other ODV help documents here. By using this site, you consent to our Privacy Policy and Usage Agreement.

Browse the tree structures below, rest the mouse over a dataset for a brief description, click on a dataset to open the dataset in a separate browser tab. Return to this page to select another dataset. Once a dataset is open, you obtain more information about the dataset via the Collection menu.

Important notes:

• The same datasets are provided at two separate servers https://explore.webodv.awi.de/ and https://webodv.eoscfe.mesocentre.uca.fr/. Please bookmark these URLs and use the other server if one is down.
• Private views and settings are stored in your browser, not on our server. Visit the Private Settings page and learn how to backup and preserve your private settings before deleting browser data.
• The ocean/carbon/socat dataset is very large and may take a while to start up. Other datasets are ready almost instantly.
