New hi-res locations and upgrades.

We are thrilled to announce new upgrades to our ocean and tidal current maps. These enhancements are designed to provide you with even more accurate and detailed information for your next adventure.

Ultra high resolution for the Olympic Games.

We’ve just released a 100m ultra high-resolution model for Marseille, the sailing venue for the Paris 2024 Olympics. As the location has negligible tidal flow, we model the effect of wind and the density difference in the water column to create the worlds most advanced current model for this location. View it by selecting the 100m resolution in Current Maps.

Improved Tidal and Ocean Current merging.

The convergence zone between the high resolution tidal currents and the low resolution ocean currents now has more accurate interpolation, fixing inaccuracies that were present in the initial release.

Compare Ocean Current models.

You can now view Ocean Current from three different sources - Mercator, Hycom and RTFOS. This feature displays the raw Ocean Current data so you compare the differences between each of the three models.

New ultra high resolution regions.

So far this year, we have added the following 100m resolution locations:

• Bay of Fundy, Canada
• Elliot Bay, WA, USA
• Oak Harbor WA, USA
• Hood River OR, USA
• San Francisco CA, USA
• Marseille, France
• Derwent, Australia
• Lyttleton, New Zealand
• Bay of Islands, New Zealand
• View the full coverage map

These additions enhance our coverage and provide more localized and accurate current data for these regions.
