STOQS Cardboard
In December of 2016 a team of Computer Science students from CSUMB participated (remotely) in the VR Hackathon in San Francisco. They won first place in the X3D category! See their entry at https://devpost.com/software/stoqs-cardboard and their award photo in this tweet.
STOQS @ MBARI
The Spatial Temporal Oceanographic Query System is used operationally at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute. Follow this link for a the project description and a link to MBARI’s public STOQS data server.
Wired Magazine story
Here’s a nicely-written story from Wired Magazine about using STOQS for visualizing data from ocean roaming robots. Even though I mentioned “X3D” a dozen times in the interviews it didn’t make it into the story.
Peer reviewed paper
A paper describing the architecture and use of STOQS has just been published by the IEEE. You can see it here: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/AUV.2014.7054414. This is currently the paper that should be cited for any publications that benefit from using STOQS.
Estimated cost of STOQS

Welcome!
This is the first blog entry on www.stoqs.org, a web site for general postings about using STOQS, the Spatial Temporal Oceanographic Query System. It supplements the repository web site that is currently hosted at https://github.com/stoqs/stoqs.
Enjoy!
