New East-India Company Observations

Open the panel below labeled 'Select ship', and pick a ship and voyage. The observations for that voyage will be downloaded and displayed both as points on the map, and as IMMA records in the pane at the bottom. Selecting a point on the map will highlight the corresponding IMMMA record, and vice versa. Clicking on an already-selected point or record will open a window allowing you to examine or edit the record. Selecting a new ship and voyage will remove the currently-displayed observations and replace them with those for the new voyage.

Open the panel labled 'Appearance' and you will see commands for colouring the map points according to the observed air temperature, SST and so on; and for adding background climatologies from HadISST and the NCEP reanalysis.
