Spotter Currents

Starting at $19,333

Equip your Spotter Platform with a current meter to track subsurface current speed and direction in real time.

What is the Spotter Platform?
+

Spotter is a modular, rapidly deployable marine sensing platform that delivers real-time surface and subsurface ocean data to power better decisions.

What is Spotter Currents?

A turnkey solution for real-time subsurface current monitoring. Ships globally, deploys quickly, and transmits current speed and direction data instantly.

Surface Float

Hub for power and communication. Measures waves, wind, and pressure in real time.

Smart Mooring

Kevlar cable extending real-time data collection underwater.

Current Meter

Measures subsurface current speed and direction.

Add More Sensors

Enhance Spotter Currents with additional sensors, such as:

Access Real-Time Currents Data

View real-time & historical observations, set alerts, and leverage the Sofar API to ingest data into custom dashboards and applications.

Real-Time Alerts
Set custom thresholds on current velocity metrics and receive instant notifications.
Historical Analysis
Review data over time to identify patterns, trends, and seasonal variations.
API Data Integration
Stream current velocity measurements directly into your applications with JSON-formatted data.

How Marine Professionals Use Spotter Currents

Streamline Go/No-Go Decision Making

Boskalis leverages Spotter Currents to assess site safety in real time at offshore wind farms.

Enhance Mission Planning

Spotter Currents informs operations for autonomous surface and underwater vehicles (ASV and AUV).

Monitor Extreme Weather

Add a subsurface pressure sensor to Spotter Currents to gauge tides in real time during extreme weather.
