Ocean Eyes develops and provides marine condition data and applications for maritime industries. Their OEView application delivers essential environmental data like wind speed, direction, and wave height directly to users, even in areas without network coverage. This service supports decision-making for professionals such as fishers operating offshore.

Problem
Marine operations and resource management require accurate, real-time data on ocean conditions such as temperature and tidal currents. Existing methods for obtaining this data can be limited in accuracy, scope, and timeliness, hindering effective decision-making.
Solution
Ocean Eyes provides oceanographic data and predictive analytics by integrating image analysis and hydrographic technology with numerical modeling and data assimilation. The company's core offering includes the SEAoME (State Estimate and Forecast of Marine Environments) system, which delivers high-accuracy predictions of water temperature, salinity, current velocity, and sea height up to 14 days in advance. Ocean Eyes also offers the FishersNavi series, a fishing ground determination support system that analyzes water lifting data and seawater temperature distribution to guide fishing operations. By combining satellite data, AI-driven pattern recognition, and ocean simulation, Ocean Eyes delivers actionable insights for sustainable ocean utilization.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes professionals in the fishing and marine industries, encompassing both offshore and coastal fishermen, as well as marine resource managers and researchers.
Features
- SEAoME: Provides forecasts of water temperature, salinity, current velocity, and sea height up to 14 days ahead with approximately 1.7 km horizontal resolution.
- FishersNavi: Delivers frequently updated sea surface temperature (SST) data derived from meteorological satellite imagery.
- AI-powered cloud removal: Employs deep learning to reconstruct SST images, filling in data gaps caused by cloud cover.
- OnSpot ocean condition forecast: Integrates sensor data from fishing vessels to provide localized predictions with a resolution of 100m.
- Isotherm diagram generation: Automates the creation of isotherm diagrams from satellite-derived ocean temperature images.
- FishersNavi Pro: Offers semi-real-time data updates, sea level anomaly data, chlorophyll data, and smooth screen transitions for offshore and deep-sea fishing.
- FishersNavi Standard: Provides basic SST data, cloud removal SST, and tide forecasts for coastal fishing, with options for mid-level water temperature and oceanic front data.
