Monitor underwater temperature, dissolved oxygen, and other water quality parameters in real time. Ships globally, deploys quickly, and transmits water quality data instantly.
Spotter Water Currents
View real-time & historical observations, set alerts, and leverage the Sofar API to ingest data into custom dashboards and applications.
Spotter Water Level
Monitor real-time water levels. Ships globally, deploys quickly, and transmits atmospheric and subsurface pressure data instantly.
Spotter Temperature
Monitor real-time thermal stratification. Ships globally, deploys quickly, and transmits temperature data across the water column instantly.
Start with One. Build a Network.
Every Spotter Platform you deploy amplifies your ocean intelligence. As your network grows, watch patterns emerge and insights multiply.
Single Point Intelligence
One Spotter. Critical point coverage.
Start with continuous ocean data from your key location. Monitor the conditions and changes that matter most.
Spatial awareness
Multiple Spotters. See the bigger picture.
Add more Spotters to increase spatial understanding. Track gradients, compare conditions between sites, and see patterns emerge.
Network Intelligence
Full network. Predict the future.
Connect enough points and the ocean reveals its secrets. Drive smarter weather models, marine forecasts, and predictions.
