Real-Time Data Delivery

Marine data is only useful once it reaches its intended end user. A reliable data management and delivery system starts with sensors and instruments that enable end-to-end data transmission of rich data sets.

Quality real-time data is the foundation for any data management system. In the ocean industries, monitoring equipment utilized has, in many cases, only allowed for very basic data points to be made available in real time. The backbone of the Aanderaa sensors and systems is a rich data set describing the quality, range, units, resolution, and information to make the display and usage of real-time data easy. Aanderaa protocols also secure data flow from end to end and detect missing data to enable re-transmit. All this allows for our equipment to be part of Aanderaa’s real time Data Management Delivery system.

Aanderaa Real-Time Data Management and Delivery offer:

Well-described data set with metadata for quality, range, unit, parameter type, and much more

Compression of data messages

Error detection to detect corruption of individual messages

Sequencing checks enabling retransmitting

Modem control in all dataloggers for Mobile modem, VHF, AIS, GOES and Iridium

System status messages

MOTUS Wave Buoy

Wave buoys effectively measure currents and waves in a dynamic environment is challenging

MOTUS Stand-Alone Sensor

Turn your buoy into an intelligent data-collecting platform with the Aanderaa MOTUS Wave Stand-Alone Sensor.

Oxygen Sensors

The Aanderaa Oxygen Optodes were the first to measure dissolved oxygen for years without drift - now it is even more stable! Below you can read more about the oxygen optode working principle

SeaGuard Sensor String

The Aanderaa SEAGUARD® Sensor String Systems are complete and flexible subsea observatories for measurements of e.g. dissolved oxygen, conductivity, temperature, current, pressure and tide.

Ocean Waves

Surface waves are formed by winds either locally as "wind waves" with shorter periods, or further away as “swell" with longer periods. A rare case of extremely long period of ocean waves are tsunamis from e.g. earthquakes and landslides. Because ocean waves can travel far and can contain high energy it is important to measure ocean waves to understand their impact on shipping fishing, tourism, constructions, shorelines, water mixing, sediment resuspension, gas exchange etc.
