The SEAScope viewer has very little and very common dependencies (you probably already have them):
SEAScope is really easy to install: download the tar.gz archive, decompress it somewhere on your computer... Done!
wget "https://seascope.oceandatalab.com/viewer/seascope-viewer-20230224.tar.gz"
tar xzf seascope-viewer-20230224.tar.gz
By default SEAScope does not contain any data, you will have to either generate your own or grab some samples from our server.
wget 'https://seascope.oceandatalab.com/data/idf_samples/light_samples_OTC2023.zip' \
-O '/tmp/light_samples_OTC2023.zip'
unzip /tmp/light_samples_OTC2023.zip -d seascope/data
Now that SEAScope is installed and that you have data to display, all you need to do is to start the application.
cd seascope
./seascope
SEAScope will index the data you downloaded during the initial startup process so please be patient: this step is skipped if the index already exists, allowing the application to start much faster afterwards.
