# Powered by the Largest Ocean Sensor Network

Sofar Ocean delivers a complete ocean intelligence platform combining solar-powered Spotter buoys, autonomous surface vehicles, smart mooring systems, and a global ocean sensor network to deliver real-time subsurface ocean data, metocean data and ocean current sensor measurements from surface to seafloor.

## Key Benefit

### **Real-Time Ocean Observing Systems**  
Access live subsurface ocean data, metocean data and ocean current sensor measurements through a single scalable platform and ocean data API

### **Flexible Ocean Sensors at Scale**  
Deploy solar-powered Spotter buoys, autonomous Spotter Scout USVs, and smart mooring systems where fixed infrastructure isn't practical, from offshore wind sites to remote ocean environments.

### ADCP Alternative  
Replace costly traditional current profilers with a flexible lower-cost smart mooring system that delivers high-resolution subsurface ocean data and offshore current measurements without sacrificing quality observations from Sofar-deployed Spotters and customer Spotters shared to the network.

## Spotter Platform Use Case

### Offshore Wind & Metocean Operations  
Capture real-time metocean data, offshore wind metocean measurements and subsurface ocean data for site assessment, operations and regulatory compliance.

### Subsurface Ocean Monitoring  
Deploy smart mooring systems with modular ocean current sensors to monitor underwater flow, temperature and pressure as an ADCP alternative for offshore monitoring programs.

### Ocean Intelligence & AI Modeling  
Power next-generation ocean observing systems and AI ocean models with in situ ocean data from the world's largest autonomous ocean sensor network.

### Ocean Data API & Platform Integration  
Stream real-time and historical observations directly into your custom dashboards, apps, and workflows via the Sofar ocean data API.
