The
EPIC Web Browser is Web application that provides interactive
on-line data access to EPIC hydrographic data sets. It
allows user to view the oceanographic in-situ data by creating
plots on-the-fly, generating listings, data downloading
etc.
Current EPIC Web Browser provides more than 1.5 million
profile (such as CTD, Bottle, and XBT data from Pacific,
FOCI, Puget Sound, VENTS, and NODC World Ocean Database,
etc.) and time series (such as surface meteorology data,
ocean data , and drifter buoy data from Alaska, Arctic,
Puget Sound, etc. and Sea Level data from University Hawaii
Sea Level Center).
EPIC Web Browser version 2.0 implements JavaScripts and
Java Applets for interactive data selection, CGI-scripts
for back-end database access and EPIC analysis programs
access, and Plot Plus Graphic package and m2gif for graphic
image creation.

The java applet reads and plots the realtime TAO meteorological data files.
This applet demonstrates the ability to interactively display data located
on a remote server at PMEL. The interface allows the user interactively
control over the plot and the ability to retrieve data points.
