Ocean Supercluster commits $12 million to real-time analytics for aquaculture project
The Atlantic Canada-based Ocean Supercluster has committed close to $12 million to a project focused on providing real-time analytics for the aquaculture industry.
The project is worth almost $27 million, with $14.8 million coming from matching industry contributions. The Integrated Operations and Real-Time Analytics Project is being led from Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia, and is meant to bridge gaps between land, sea-based, and processing operations that exist in the aquaculture industry. The project is set to provide real-time information, analytics and environmental connectivity to improve overall operations.
“This is a real game-changer for the aquaculture industry and for the region.”
Called the Integrated Operations and Real-Time Analytics Project, it is being led by Grieg Seafood Newfoundland, Innovasea, SubC Imaging, AKVA Group, and High-Tech Communications.
When complete it will enable fish farming companies in Newfoundland and Labrador to operate a number of systems remotely in areas where this would not have been previously possible due to lack of connectivity. Canada’s Ocean Supercluster is contributing close to $12 million to the project, with the remaining $14.8 million coming from the industry.
The project aims to benefit its partners through:
Enhanced containment monitoring.
