Charting the Course: Celebrating World Ocean Month with GeoOptics
/in GeoOptics News /by GeoOpticsJune is World Ocean Month, a time to reflect on the vast expanse of our planet covered by water. With over 70 percent of the Earth’s surface consisting of oceans and a staggering 97 percent of our water being oceanic, the importance of protecting these life-sustaining resources cannot be overstated.
At GeoOptics, we recognize the pivotal role that understanding our oceans plays in maintaining the Earth’s ecosystems. Leveraging satellite technology, we plan to observe and monitor Earth’s oceans through altimetry, scatterometry, and synthetic aperture radar. This capability will allow us to assess the state of our oceans and their impact on the environment, and empower scientists, policymakers, industries, and citizens to make informed decisions regarding climate change mitigation and ocean conservation efforts.
In response to growing demands for oceanic data, policymakers and regulators are turning to the scientific community and commercial satellite industry for guidance. GeoOptics stands at the forefront, a leader in new technologies for ocean monitoring. As the first company to provide NOAA with operational commercial radio occultation (RO) data from space, we are pioneers in the field. In addition, our collaboration with the National Oceanographic Partnership Program is yielding new technologies to observe ocean vector winds, topography, soil moisture, and various surface properties through innovative radar techniques.
We remain committed to preserving the health of our oceans and waterways. And commercial satellite technologies play a crucial role in safeguarding these precious resources for future generations.
Join us this World Ocean Month as we continue our mission to protect and sustain our planet’s vital waters. Visit our website for more information.
