Absolute Ocean

THE DATA PLATFORM AT THE HEART OF OceanOS™

Built for interoperability. Designed for security. Scaled for the planet’s largest unmapped frontier. Absolute Ocean is a federated, cloud-native platform that synchronizes ocean intelligence across sources, workflows, and stakeholders for seamless data management.

Platform Capabilities

Enterprise-Grade Ocean Intelligence

Universal Data Integration

Ingest data from any source—OceanOS™ collection vehicles, third-party assets, government archives, commercial sensors—into a unified data environment. No more silos.

  • Terradepth Autonomous Vehicles: Long-endurance AUVs with hybrid diesel-electric propulsion, 1,000nm range, 30-day missions
  • Archive Data: NOAA, EMODnet, satellite, and proprietary historical datasets
  • Third-Party Assets: Integration with partner AUVs, USVs, and sensor networks via standard protocols
  • Real-Time Feeds: AIS, weather, oceanographic sensors, and infrastructure monitoring systems
Intelligent Processing at Decision Speed

Automated QC, ML-driven classification, and Agentic AI that transforms raw data into actionable intelligence—at the edge and in the cloud.

  • Automated QC: Standards-compliant quality control across all data types
  • ML Classification: Object detection, anomaly identification, and pattern recognition
  • Fusion Engine: Multi-source integration into unified geospatial products
  • Edge Processing: Absolute Ocean On-Board for at-sea analysis and bandwidth-constrained operations
Application Foundation

The data layer on which OceanOS™ applications are built. APIs, SDKs, and integration tools that let you build custom solutions or deploy our purpose-built applications.

  • Mission Planning: Tasking, routing, and resource optimization for autonomous operations
  • Infrastructure Monitoring: Continuous awareness of cables, pipelines, and offshore assets
  • Survey & Mapping: High-resolution bathymetry, habitat classification, and resource assessment
  • API Access: Programmatic integration for downstream platforms and custom applications
Key Features

Unlock the Power of Your Seafloor Data

Unified Ocean Data Warehousing

Eliminate data silos and costly re-surveys with a centralized, secure ocean data warehouse. Your organization’s single source of truth for all seabed datasets, fully searchable and audit-ready.

Visual Intelligence & Insights

Transform raw bathymetry and other geophysical data into interactive maps, profiles, and time-series comparisons enabling anyone, not just specialists, to make data-driven decisions.

Automated Data Delivery & Validation

Ingest survey data directly from the field with no manual handling. Automated validation ensures accuracy and speed, and our API ensures seamless connectivity to your existing tools.

Data Privacy & Security

Government-trusted security standards ensure that sensitive subsea intelligence stays private, protected, and compliant.

Data Types

Ocean Data Supported for Better Operational Efficiency

Visualization of data types currently supported by Absolute Ocean include:

Bathymetric

3D map of seafloor depth and features

Side Scan Sonar

High-resolution image of the seafloor surface

Magnetometer

Locate ferrous objects such as pipelines or shipwrecks

Profiling

Image layers beneath the seabed

Backscatter

Identify seafloor composition from sonar intensity

SAS

Synthetic Aperture Sonar for detailed imaging

Optical

Visual imagery of underwater environments

LiDAR

Light detection and ranging for precise measurements
AO On Board

Real-Time Access & Collaboration

Access survey data directly on-vessel or transmit securely to shore crews in low-bandwidth environments.

Instant Access - At Sea or On Shore

Access survey data directly on-vessel or transmit securely to shore crews in low-bandwidth environments. No need to wait for physical hard drives or post-mission processing.

Faster Decision Cycles

Reduce costly re-surveys and accelerate project timelines with on-vessel, in-mission analysis and rapid QA/QC accessible to all stakeholders.

Shared Operational Picture

Multiple teams, from offshore, onshore, and headquarters, can collaborate in a single environment, viewing the same datasets, annotations, and insights in real time.

Reduced Operational Risk

Make informed decisions while assets are still deployed, minimizing vessel standby time and avoiding delays due to unknowns.

Platform Integrations

Built-In, Not Bolt-On

Absolute Ocean integrates with the platforms and tools your organization already uses—feeding clean, structured ocean data into your existing workflows.

Defense Platforms

When defense platforms need ocean data, Absolute Ocean provides the collection, processing, and dissemination layer. We handle the data; they handle the mission.

Enterprise Systems

GIS platforms (ESRI, QGIS). Survey software (HYPACK, EIVA, QPS). Asset management systems. Cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP). Absolute Ocean exports to standard formats and integrates via API.

Government Standards

IHO S-100 family. NOAA specifications. NATO STANAG. FedRAMP and IL4/IL5 security. Absolute Ocean is built for government interoperability and classified operations.
