Turn Raw Ocean Data into Actionable Insight

Centralise your ocean data workflows through our platform: focusing on data sharing, quality control and collaboration. Combining the worlds of geospatial (GIS) and geophysical.

The Challenge

The Challenge of Managing Ocean Big Data

Today’s offshore projects are slowed down by broken data workflows and disconnected tools:

Fragmented Data Landscape

Data is scattered across local servers, hard drives, and departments, with no single source of truth.

Slow, Manual Data Transfer

From vessel to office to final deliverable, it simply takes too long to access, review, and deliver data products.

Too Many Formats, Too Many Tools

Dozens of incompatible file types and missing standards require switching between multiple software suites, causing inefficiency and data loss.

Difficult to Visualize & Share

Complex 2D/3D underwater data is hard to interpret and nearly impossible to share seamlessly across internal teams and external partners.

Our Solution

Our Core Technologies

Build for Scale, Speed and Flexibility

Cloud-Native by Design

Go beyond traditional desktop limits when working with geophysical and geospatial data. Discover how managing ocean data in the cloud dramatically reduces costs and speeds up data management workflows.

Broad Format Support

Seamlessly work with over 40 file types, ranging from Multibeam and Side-scan Sonar to Sub-Bottom Profiler. Our internal use of the cloud-optimised format Apache Parquet enables you for high-performance cloud computing.

Cloud-Optimised Geointelligence

Today’s offshore projects generate hundreds of terabytes of underwater data. Our technology is purpose-built to match the domain's complexity and make raw data understandable.

Custom Development & Integration

Every organisation is unique. That’s why we develop tailored integrations and tools ranging from survey planning, ocean data processing automation, to AI analytics.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What sensor data formats do you support?

We support 40+ formats including MBES (.ALL, .S7K), SSS (.XTF), SBP (.SEGY), point clouds (.LAS, .XYZ), raster/vector (GeoTIFF, SHP).

How does this differ from standard DEM-based workflows?

Unlike digital elevation model (DEM)-based tools, we don’t rely on pre-rasterised elevation models. Instead, our solution analyses raw point cloud data—preserving full spatial, structural, and material detail. This means higher detection accuracy, especially in areas with sparse data or subtle anomalies.

Can i use this with existing survey data, or do i need new acquisitions?

Absolutely. You can upload historical survey data and immediately gain new insights. Many clients detect overlooked anomalies in previously analysed datasets using our advanced analytics.

How do i get started?

Simply schedule a demo with our team. We’ll show you how the platform works, review your data needs, and guide you through onboarding—whether you're exploring a single project or integrating it into long-term workflows.
