Have it working.... not much use yet. Does show 'Dead Zones' which are areas where there is not enough oxygen to sustain life. It also shows surfing areas and diving areas - the diving areas might be of interest to anglers. Will keep messing with it and see what else is there.

On Google Earth, anyone got an idea what might be going on at 60 02 22 41 N and 42 22 53 54 W (in Greenland)?? Have not spotted anything like it anywhere else.

Apologies, should have been 69 02 22 41 N and 42 22 53 54 W - it's a 39Km long blanked out area.
