Historic Oil Spills on a map

The map below is a combination of a web resource in KMZ format and the new ocean base map of Esri. It shows Oil Spill data all over the world. Many details on these including photographs can be obtained by clicking the spill zones or point sources. To view the complete information, maximize the pop-ups. The KML data are loaded live above the map, have a little patience, it might take 20 seconds before the oil spills are loaded from a different website. Have a look at the BP oil spill in the gulf of Mexico, the link includes a small movie.
