Google Chrome is recommended for use with the CLAROS Explorer. Other web browsers will work. However when a large number of points are plotted in the Google map it will slow down most other web browsers so greatly it will appear they stop working.
The CLAROS Explorer allows you to search all the records within CLAROS and display the results as a textual list, images, on a map and on a timeline. Initially if no search options are selected, all records are displayed and you may browse through them.
Searching- General search: Enter any search term into the General search box above e.g. Apollo then press the Tab key to move out of the field and start the search.
