Quality Research Data from the Most Remote Oceans

Saildrone technology is revolutionizing how scientists and research agencies obtain the real-time, accurate data needed to explore and protect our seas. Purpose-built scientific payloads allow Saildrone to deliver unparalleled transparency and value for customers who need to know more about the seabed, environment, and activity.

Saildrone’s fleet of uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs), powered by renewable wind and solar power, are designed to scale ocean data collection with a minimum carbon footprint. Saildrone USVs operate 24/7/365 without the need for a crewed support vessel. The Saildrone fleet has sailed more than 1,300,000 nautical miles and spent over 42,000 days at sea in the harshest ocean conditions on the planet.

Ocean Research

High-resolution in situ ocean data for scientific research on a broad temporal and spatial scale from the most remote areas of the ocean.

Ocean Mapping

Full ocean depth mapping solutions for navigation, telecommunications, offshore energy, and understanding weather and climate.

BENEFITS

Transforming Ocean Access through Advanced Technology

Uncrewed solutions deliver a cost-effective alternative to crewed ships while simultaneously de-risking projects and reducing your project's carbon footprint.

Saildrone USVs are equipped with cutting-edge scientific sensors and cameras to gather essential data for offshore wind farms. This includes high-resolution ocean mapping, metocean data, persistent ecosystem monitoring, and the implementation of maritime security.

Together with optical cameras and proprietary machine-learning models, the Saildrone platform delivers real-time, 24/7 visual detection of maritime activity in the vicinity of protected assets, including identifying vessels and visiting sea life.

Reliability at Sea

Saildrone's global experience in challenging environments, redundant propulsion capabilities, and hardened datalinks ensure seagoing reliability and data security.

Smarter Data in Real Time

Leverage a decade of data collected at the sea and proprietary ML/AI algorithms to get better data, not just more data.

Low Acoustic Signature

Saildrone's USVs produce minimal acoustic signatures and vibrations, resulting in near-silent operations that enhance the data quality of defense-specific payloads.

Payload Integration

Saildrone's modular payload integrations conform to the highest standards honed through years of integrating advanced scientific payloads for ocean data clients.

Operation Windward Stack begins with testing as we integrate the information we receive from the Saildrones into our fleet command center to further increase maritime domain awareness in the US Southern Command Area of Responsibility (AOR).”

Lt. Cmdr. John Clark

Director of US 4th Fleet Current Operations (COPS)

The initial Saildrone assessment phase at sea in the Gulf of Aqaba has exceeded our expectations...We are applying the results and rapidly expanding operations.”
