    What makes you think this is new?
    I've been using the ETOPO2 data for years.

    Is there somewhere, where they say its been updated?
    ETOPO1 is actually a newer dataset, I believe.

    "The new online data viewer compiles sea floor data from the near shore to the deep blue, including the latest high-resolution bathymetric (sea bottom) data collected by NOAA's Office of Coast Survey primarily to support nautical charting."

    Of cours not new, New,..but some nice new interactive widgets for the everyone not knowing of this "new" Resource

    okay... ya, there are plenty of gaps and issues with this data, so any upgrade in the actual data is very helpful for us wave modellers.
