Abstract
A new collaboration between visualization experts, engineers, and marine biologists has changed. For the first time, we can see and study the foraging behavior of humpback whales. Our study´s primary objective was furthering the science of marine mammal ethology. We also had a second objective: field testing GeoZui4D, an innovative test-bench for investigate effective ways of navigating through time-varying geospatial data
