CounterCurrent, an ocean data and technology company, today announced a new partnership with Aurora Expeditions and The Polar Citizen Science Collective to trial their AI-enabled ocean forecasting and smart ship routing technology in the Southern Ocean.
The system will use onboard sensors to capture real-time wind, wave and ocean current data from Antarctica’s remote waters during the 2025-26 season.
Aurora Expeditions has announced new sustainability collaboration with CounterCurrent, integrating its pioneering AI-powered navigation system aboard the new Douglas Mawson.
The shipping industry must cut its emissions at sea. Solutions abound in the form of new fuels, transit routes and onboard carbon capture.
A UNSW study into ocean currents is being utilised to develop an algorithm using AI to optimise shipping routes.
A ‘Google Maps for the sea’ is the description of a new algorithm aimed at improving shipping’s environmental performance.
