Exploration
Study of Earth's oceans is called oceanography. Travel on the surface of the ocean through the use of boats dates back to prehistoric times, but only in modern times has extensive underwater travel become possible.

Exploration Phase - Data and Model Exploration
For environmental modeling, it is important to see where the data are located within a region of interest. Sampling plans must include coverage of interesting or important zones.
