An open ocean observation network
The ocean,
observed.
A clearer picture of our coast.
Shared by the people out there.
The people out there
see a different
side of the sea.
Every crossing. Every working day.
Every moment on the water.
Sailors, ferries, workboats and shore stations have a part to play in understanding our coast. EnviroMarine brings instrument observations into a shared, open picture.
Not predictions. Measurements from the people who are there.

Who can contribute?
Sailors, ferries, workboats and shore stations. The contributor guide explains how to join the founding fleet and share instrument observations. Read the guide ↗
Can I use this for navigation?
No. EnviroMarine shares observations, not forecasts, and the explorer is not a navigation chart. Use official marine guidance for passage decisions.
