Google diving into 3D mapping of oceans

From CNET:

“We've got Google Earth and Google Sky. Next up will be a map of the world below sea level--Google Ocean.”

“The tool…is expected to be similar to other 3D online mapping applications. People will be able to see the underwater topography, called bathymetry; search for particular spots or attractions; and navigate through the digital environment by zooming and panning.”
