Field notes
The interface lists both automatic cruising and manual piloting, plus controls for local time, seasons, sound, recording, and on-screen instruments. The page says reef terrain, coral, and organism placement are procedurally generated, while species are selected from those that actually live in each sea. Its source credits include Sentinel-2, NASA imagery, GSI mapping, and Open-Meteo; the WebGL initialization error prevented testing the simulation.
