• We have developed a new system to visualize observation data obtained in JAMSTEC research vessels. We use Google Earth as a data browser. Google Earth supports an XML-based language, called KML (Keyhole Markup Language), to plot data on Google Earth. We have developed a program, called KML generator, to convert the original data to KML. Our KML generator accepts the research data such as navigation data, sea water salinity and temperature data (CTD data), geomagnetic field data, and bathymetry data obtained in research vessels. The KML generator enables us to visualize those data on Google Earth quickly and compare with other data easily. It would become a powerful tool to interpret these research data and to get insights toward Earth's dynamical processes.
