Mission Connect the world's oceans to power a more sustainable future.
Description Oceans cover over 70% of our planet and over 90% of the world’s trade is carried by sea. Oceans drive our weather and climate, which impacts everyone: every human, every industry, and every country.
And still, ocean data is next to non-existent. We know more about the surface of the moon than the waters surrounding us.
At Sofar, we aim to deliver large-scale ocean data to accelerate climate insights. Ocean data and insights are increasingly critical for successful climate mitigation and adaptation solutions. As a first step, we are building the world’s largest real-time ocean weather sensor network which provides the most accurate marine weather information and forecasts to power industry-specific solutions.
We believe that more and better ocean data will contribute to greater understanding of our environment, better decisions, improved business outcomes, and ultimately contribute to a more sustainable planet.
