Introducing Wayfinder Data Health

At Sofar Ocean, first-party data is a cornerstone.

From proprietary weather powering route guidance in Wayfinder to vessel performance modeling, the quality of our insights depends on the quality of the data behind them. The more accurate and timely that data, the better the optimization.

Wayfinder Data Health brings that same standard to your fleet's data.

Every optimization Wayfinder produces, including routing guidance, RPM suggestions, fuel consumption predictions, and voyage planning, is built from data. The timeliness and completeness of that data directly shapes the quality of the output.

What Data Health shows you

Data Health gives both shoreside and vessel teams a clear view of how their vessel data is performing across the fleet. Each vessel receives an overall health status (Healthy, Degraded, or Inconclusive) drawn from two component scores: a quality score and an availability score.

The quality score reflects how complete and consistent vessel reports are. The availability score reflects how consistently reports are arriving on time. Together they roll up into a single fleet-level view.

Data Health also surfaces an initial score alongside the current score, so teams can track how data improves over time.

Where to find it

Data Health is accessible now to all Wayfinder customers. In Fleet View, a new Data Health column displays the health status for every vessel across your fleet, with each vessel clickable for a full breakdown. In Vessel Reports, expand the Data Health section for the complete view.

Full documentation is available in The Bridge under Vessel Reports.

A step toward greater transparency

Data Health is a transparency layer designed to give your teams direct visibility into the data that informs Wayfinder's guidance.

The goal is straightforward: data drives efficiency. And when data quality improves, so does everything built on top of it.

Better data visibility means better decisions at sea.
