Initial Prototype

In collaboration with Propelland and Nokia Bell Labs. With the ocean occupying 3/4 of the planet it is responsible for 50% of the oxygen we breathe, however this ecosystem is degrading to an unprecedented scale.

In order to preserve it, we must be able to efficiently monitor its health by democratizing oceanic health data acquisition and access. Oceans monitoring is an open-source low cost CTD (conductivity, temperature, depth) probe that is designed to attach to sailing boats to get subsurface data and relay that to ground station using Nokia Bell Labs 5G Moon Network.
