Maps and informational graphics in this gallery were created by the Census of Marine Life Mapping and Visualization Team and other Census groups where noted. Non-commercial use by permission.

The Census of Marine Life was a global network of researchers in more than 80 nations engaged in a 10-year scientific initiative to assess and explain the diversity, distribution, and abundance of life in the oceans.  The world's first comprehensive census of the past, present, and future of life in the oceans was released in October 2010.

Three Easy Steps to Include Google Maps on Your Web

  1. Obtain a Google Maps API key for your project web site at http://code.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html.
  2. Go to the "Edit" tab and enter the parameters, including "Google Maps API key" and map width/height, center location and initial zoom. Save.
  3. Insert or edit the following lines into the HTML of the web page where you wish to display the map:
    <!-- Insert the following line in between the <HEAD> and </HEAD> sections. -->
    <script src="http://comlmaps.org/gallery/historical_conference/Historical%20Findings/coml_init_js"></script>
    
    <!-- Add onload="loadScript();" to the <BODY> tag as the following.
    If your page already defines onload event, add loadScript() to it. --> <body onload="loadScript();"> <!-- Place the following <DIV> where you want Google Maps to appear. --> <div id="map_coml_mv"/>
    The simplest example:
    <html>
      <head>
        <script src="http://comlmaps.org/gallery/historical_conference/Historical%20Findings/coml_init_js"></script>
      </head>
      <body onload="loadScript();">
        CoML Project Map
        <div id="map_coml_mv"/>
      </body>
    </html>
