The Alaska Ocean Observing System (AOOS) has released its new Transition
Data Portal, which can be found through the AOOS homepage at:
http://www.aoos.org.

AOOS's new data management team, Axiom Consulting & Design, has been
working steadily in their new role to develop data products and
visualization tools for AOOS users. The beta release of the new system
is scheduled for late January 2011, coinciding with the Alaska Marine
Science Symposium.

In the meantime, new prototype applications provide access to a variety
of oceanographic datasets and feeds during the transition period.
Current applications include:

- Real-time sensors and web cams
- Arctic Research Assets Map
- Models and remote sensing
- North Pacific Seabirds
- Prince William Sound webcam page

Anyone interested is invited to explore these new data applications.
AOOS welcomes feedback to guide future system development, and each
application provides a mechanism to submit questions, comments, and
suggestions through a web-based form.
