DigitalGlobe has spent the last five days uploading high-resolution satellite and aerial images to its Tomnod site that let people explore the seas for clues about the crash, as well signs of a wreckage or oil slick.
Images are then tagged by users and analysed by experts before the most significant sightings are sent to the search teams in Asia.
