Unlocking New Data. Unlocking The Ocean.
Our primary objective is to facilitate accessible, reliable data collection that supports environmental monitoring, enhances marine research, and contributes to sustainable economic growth in coastal regions.
NEPTUNE Drifter is a versatile, cost-effective marine research platform designed to empower organizations with real-time environmental monitoring and data collection. By offering an open-source, modular design, NEPTUNE Drifter allows users to customize and integrate various sensors, making it ideal for diverse applications from aquaculture to climate research. Unlike expensive, proprietary systems, NEPTUNE Drifter delivers advanced capabilities at an accessible price point, appealing to research institutions, educational programs, and small-scale commercial users. Our technology not only supports critical ocean health insights but also contributes to sustainable economic growth in marine industries, making it a valuable asset in the growing blue economy.
NEPTUNE Drifter fulfills the current and evolving needs of marine research and environmental
monitoring across several key industries and for academic research, particularly in New England, where coastal and marine activities are integral to the regional economy. Here’s how NEPTUNE Drifter serves these market demands:
New England’s marine ecosystem is one of the fastest-changing due to temperature shifts and acidification. NEPTUNE Drifter helps track these changes over time, providing valuable data for managing fish populations, protecting endangered species, and supporting coastal resilience advancing marine science and technology, allowing research institutions to collect and analyze data on various environmental factors.
NEPTUNE Drifter aligns with New England's focus on advancing marine science and technology, allowing research institutions to collect and analyze data on various environmental factors. This is particularly beneficial given the need for continuous data to understand long-term trends and improve regional ocean management.
In New England, where aquaculture is growing, NEPTUNE Drifter helps farmers monitor parameters like salinity and dissolved oxygen, which are essential for maintaining healthy conditions for shellfish and fish. The data supports sustainable practices in the face of increasing challenges such as harmful algal blooms.
