THE Nippon Foundation-Gebco Seabed 2030 Project has partnered with SeaDeep, a company dedicated to revolutionizing ocean exploration through artificial intelligence (AI).
The collaboration supports the ambitious goal of mapping the entire ocean floor by the end of the decade, contributing to global efforts for comprehensive marine understanding.
SeaDeep is at the forefront of leveraging technology in oceanography. The company is developing an AI platform to enhance subsea exploration and monitoring. Its patented multimodal undersea intelligence platform allows users to analyze data and generate inspection reports instantly, significantly improving the efficiency and accuracy of current techniques.
Jamie McMichael-Phillips, project director of Seabed 2030, said: “This collaboration with SeaDeep marks a significant milestone in our journey towards a fully mapped ocean. Working in partnership with industry and other stakeholders to develop leading-edge technology and provide practical at-sea surveying experience is central to our mission.”
Eric Osherow, CEO and co-founder of SeaDeep, highlighted the potential of AI to transform data processing in marine environments.
“We are excited to join forces with Seabed 2030, a project that aligns with our vision of utilizing technology to better understand the ocean. By integrating AI-driven solutions into this international effort, we can enhance data collection.”
The partnership underscores the importance of advanced technology in addressing the complexities of ocean exploration. The ability of AI to analyze vast amounts of data quickly can lead to more accurate insights, supporting conservation efforts and informed decision-making in marine management.
All data collected through this initiative will be incorporated into the Gebco global grid, ensuring that valuable information is freely available to researchers and policymakers.
