Summary

Description
English: Map of the search areas for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 in the Southern Indian Ocean. Note that the search areas were determined based on several factors, including drift between the date Flight 370 disappeared (8 March 2014) and the date of the search.

Not shown:

  • A Japanese satellite spotted 10 objects possibly related to Flight 370. No coordinates for these objects could be found online; therefore, they haven't been included in the map.
  • The bathymetric survey, which was suspended on 17 December 2014. The map released by the JACC showing the areas surveyed is in a different projection and can't easily be included in this map, but is available here: File:MH370 bathymetric survey progress 23-Dec-2014.jpg
