Add Google Maps output to Carbon Server

Reported by steven.c.hankin on 13 Jun 2008 16:56 UTC Add Google Maps output to the Carbon Server at http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/OCDMS/servlets/dataset

Can we make it into an alternative UI to the one linked from http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/OCDMS/index.htm?

Some ideas:[[BR]]

• Pre-generate high-res (large) global images with hourly sampled data? (Using transparent oceans and land the compression factor should be quite high. But pre-generating isn't possible for user-specified constraints.)
• Or dynamically get higher resolution data as we zoom?
• Perhap scatter placemarks at a much lower sampling interval (daily?) along the color-by-value image tracks. Placemarks could lead to the property/property viewer for that particular cruise -- already an existing product.
