Bringing Advanced Engineering and Technology Development to Marine Science and Exploration

Our Mission

Marine Science Foundation is dedicated to advancing marine research by providing state-of-the-art sensor technology, persistent data collection, and advanced analytics. Our mission is to develop and deploy the latest advancements in remote sensing technology, enabling deeper insights into unknown factors that impact the marine environment.

Persistent Remote Sensing

Water quality sampling throughout many watersheds is performed in a variety of methods and often is not continuous. Data currently collected represents point sampling, which does not allow for complete monitoring. Even data that has been collected at specific intervals is typically collected over short periods or in a limited number of locations, yielding small data sets. By sampling at short intervals on a 24/7 basis, we expect to be able to capture the impact of fleeting events, such as rain deluges or moving turbidity plumes, and define the effects of cyclical variations.

Quantitative vs Qualitative

Developing advanced sensors that can reliably collect and report ‘open source’ datasets is critical to providing immutable quantitative data for analysis of environmental and marine life patterns. MSF emphasizes quantitative over qualitative analysis, which will enable a more proactive and predictive posture for marine conservation. Our goal is to collect data with the smallest interference in the ecosystem as possible.
