Digital Twin Ocean: How PHAROS Uses AI and Live Sensors to Predict the Future of Our Waters
 Digital Twin Ocean: How PHAROS Uses AI and Live Sensors to Predict the Future of Our Waters 1024 576 PHAROS Project
PHAROS is building a live digital copy of two very different marine environments (the nutrient-rich waters off Gran Canaria and Iceland’s salmon rivers) in a system called a Digital Twin Ocean (DTO). Led by PHAROS partner blueOASIS, this unique multi-layered approach streams real-time data from seabed to cloud using sensors, underwater cameras, acoustic hydrophones and self-learning AI, presenting everything through an easy-to-use dashboard. The goal is simple: to give marine managers, scientists and local communities the power to see, understand and respond to changes in our ocean before problems become irreversible. read more
How Scientists Track Invasive Pink Salmon in Iceland Rivers
