Google have launched a new Google Earth Oceans showcase that allows you to explore the oceans with more detail than ever before.
"Dive into the ocean and discover who lives there -- from a deep sea octopus to humpback whales. Explore lost shipwrecks, dive and surf spots, the ocean's deepest trench, and the latest discoveries of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI). After interacting with the highlight tours below, download Google Earth 5 to explore further"
The new video tour, which is narrated by National Geographic ocean explorer, Sylvia Earle takes you through the collective information that Google have gathered in a whirlwind tour. Well worth viewing.
Google Earth Oceans also allows you to view information on research discoveries, shipwrecks, dive spots, surf spots, underwater terrain and great lakes.
