By combining GPS data with millions of gigabytes of satellite imagery and using AI, we’ll publicly map more than a million ocean-going vessels.

We’ll see the entire industrial fishing fleet, including dark fishing vessels, and hundreds of thousands of cargo ships.

We’ll add tens of thousands of oil and gas structures, wind farms and aquaculture pens.

For the first time ever, a free, open monitoring system for the whole ocean.
