> What specifically would you want to be different?

It's sold for data exploration, so i except some useful data-app with an up to date interface, dedicated for interactive navigation and presentation of data.

> It seems to me to serve the purpose well:

Not really. This looks like something that could even run on Internet Explorer 2. It has significant flaws in terms of UI and UX, and lacking nearly everything I except here.

It's incredibly wasteful on space. I must scroll down two screens to even see some data. For some reason the map is high jacking the scroll down, and the map is so broken that I end with multiple earths displayed, with only one having actual data. Changes to the query are not in-place, the whole side is reloads every time. Adding a new filter only seems to work after a reload. And all information are really sparse and scattered randomly around. And finally, there seems to be no way to shape the actual output, which would be the main job of a data explorer.
