the public accessible LAS server
Start
the IOW internal LAS server
Welcome to the Live Access Server of IOW. This server delivers a couple of
data sets of different origin and purpose. The intension is to simplify data
exchange and usage. Hence, the imaging tools are mostly to get an overview over
the properties of the delivered data sets. The data can be also downloaded in
several formats. This makes further processing easy. Please reference the data
source, if you find the data suitable for your research or educational work.
You will find the required information with the dataset description. Please
consider also the IOW data protection statement and disclaimer, which can be
found below.
LAS and the underlying data processing and visualisation tool FERRET are products
of the Pacific Marine Environmental
Laboratory.

If something does not work, please be patient. Java is not a high speed language,
also the network may be overloaded. Consider also, that some datasets are really
huge. Please do not repeat requests rapidly. This may overload the server instead
of giving speed. If a timeout occurs, please retry, probably data are read from
disk and are ready for use in the servers memory now. If a java error occurs,
retry also. However, it may happen, that the server dies. In this case you will
be confronted with repeated java errors. The server will be restarted automatically
after one hour. So please wait one hour and try again. It is also recommended,
to restart your session in the case of serious errors. Please be aware, that
browsers use a cache and do not reload data in any case. If the error persists,
please contact the servers administrator.
If the interactive map does not work, please check whether your browsers
allows for java scripting. This is needed for the java map to choose your output
region.
If you do not get any output, please enable "popup windows", because
the output is written into a separate window. The Microsoft Internet Explorer
writes a notification into the browser window header. Some other hints can be
found here,
you can also test your browser at Peter Koflers web page http://kofler.dot.at/browsersupport/jsapplet.html.
With some browsers the java livemap does not work correctly. In this case a
less comfortable fallback becomes active. You should try to activate the java
map again, in some cases this helps.
