Innovative Solutions for Ocean Observation Join Our Community
We are delighted to announce that Ocean Access AS has officially been accepted as a new project at ESA Arctic Phi-Lab Norway. This marks an exciting milestone in our ongoing mission to foster cutting-edge research and innovation in the field of Earth observation for the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions.
Submersible Sensing Buoy for EO Integration
Ocean Access AS brings a wealth of expertise and fresh perspectives to the Arctic Phi-Lab community. Their research proposal, “Submersible Sensing Buoy for EO Integration,” stood out for its ambition and potential impact. The project aims to advance ocean observation technologies and methodologies, contributing valuable insights into the Arctic marine environment.
Ocean Access is developing a submersible sensor buoy capable of delivering structured, real-time ocean data that can be directly integrated into Earth Observation (EO) models. The project aims to enhance EO accuracy by fusing data from satellite imagery with vertically profiled in-situ measurements – enabling smarter and more holistic monitoring of events such as harmful algal blooms, oxygen depletion, and changing water conditions in the Arctic.
Why This Matters
With climate change rapidly transforming the polar regions, accurate and timely ocean observation is more important than ever. Ocean Access AS’s project aligns perfectly with our core goals: enabling smarter, data-driven decisions to address environmental challenges and empowering the next generation of Arctic researchers.
By combining advanced satellite-based technologies, innovative research approaches, and interdisciplinary expertise, the Ocean Access AS team exemplifies the spirit of collaboration and scientific exploration that the Arctic Phi-Lab was created to encourage.
“We’re very grateful and excited to be selected by ESA and the Arctic Phi Lab for this project. By combining detailed measurements from our autonomous sensing buoys with wide-area satellite observations, we can build a robust, scalable monitoring system that delivers faster and clearer insight into what’s happening in the ocean.”
– Andreas Mauritzen, CEO
