MADIS
The Ocean, Measured in Real Time
Marine Analysis Data Intelligence System – every AQVARIX-equipped vessel becomes a permanent ocean sensor node, streaming validated met-ocean data from where it matters most: the sea itself.
WHY OCEAN DATA
Decisions at Sea Are Only as Good as the Data Behind Them
IN-SITU ACCURACY
Wave-height correlation against Central Weather Administration reference buoys.
ALWAYS ON
Every equipped vessel streams wave, current, depth and weather data on every voyage.
NETWORK EFFECT
Each new vessel expands coverage — more ships, more data, better forecasts for everyone.
CAPABILITIES
Multi-Parameter Observation Suite
Wave Dynamics
Significant wave height and period derived from accelerometer/IMU via RAO correction algorithms.
Ocean Currents
Velocity profile measurements using ADCP DCPS 5400 for current speed and direction.
Atmospheric Data
Wind speed, direction, and barometric pressure from GMX500 multi-sensor weather station.
Bathymetry
Real-time depth detection using DST 800 single-beam echo sounder.
Sea Temperature
Surface and subsurface water temperature monitoring with precision sensors.
HOW IT WORKS
From Hull to Insight
Collect — Ships as Sensor Nodes
Every AQVARIX vessel doubles as a MADIS node, measuring waves, currents, depth, temperature and weather along its route — no extra crew workload, no dedicated survey vessel required.
Validate — MCC + GenAI Quality Pipeline
Raw readings are cleaned, cross-checked and validated through our MCC + GenAI pipeline, so what reaches you is analysis-ready data you can trust — not noise.
Deliver — Data Where You Work
Access continuous streams via API and dashboard, commission scoped surveys, or license historical datasets — for forecasting, offshore wind, port operations and maritime AI.
