iOCEAN is a 3D educational app developed to supplement high school oceanography. It is intended as a resource for students and provides a fun way to learn through interactive visualization.

GAMEPLAY

iOCEAN:

- includes three areas of learning: the globe, the bookcase, and the fishing area

- the globe provides information on the world's oceans and seas
