Looking for feedback on WhaleScope: combining cetacean observations with oceanographic data
Hi everyone,
Over the past few months I've been building WhaleScope, a platform designed to explore relationships between cetacean observations, oceanographic conditions and human activities at a global scale.
The idea is to bring together datasets that are often scattered across multiple sources and make them easier to explore together.
Current features include:
• Species distribution exploration
• Comparison with oceanographic variables
• Seasonal potential habitat exploration
• Shipping traffic exposure analysis
• Marine ecosystem and bioregion layers
The platform currently relies on more than 1 million observations covering around 90 cetacean species.
I'm sharing a few screenshots and would be very interested in feedback from the oceanography community:
• Which ocean variables would you find most useful?
• What important datasets are missing?
• Can you see research, conservation or educational applications for this type of tool?

Thanks for any feedback or suggestions!Hi everyone,
