KIEL, Germany  TrueOcean enables efficient data management and analysis with a new holistic generation of cloud-based ocean data systems that the company says goes beyond GIS-systems and rethinks the way users handle and leverage marine big geospatial data in the offshore domain. The technology offers data transfer, inspection, analysis and integration capabilities.

TrueOcean says it simplifies data transfer by providing seamless connectivity between the field and the cloud, and the technology ensures efficient and reliable transfer of data, enabling quick and convenient data inspection from any location and at any time. 

Leveraging cloud technologies like Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure and Ionos, TrueOcean is designed to run on public cloud platforms and large corporate data centers worldwide. The company says this versatility ensures optimal performance, scalability and reliability, regardless of the operational context or legal restrictions. 

TrueOcean's technology can process and analyze massive datasets with a high scalability and efficiency. Leveraging scalable cloud resources, TrueOcean says its new approach enables analysis of entire datasets in the petabyte range, facilitating in-depth exploration and uncovering valuable insights that were previously hardly achievable.

TrueOcean's tools are designed to address the distinct challenges and demands of marine operations, including planning, analyzing survey results and managing metadata. The technology has the ability to interact with raw sensor data. The integration of all kinds of raw data formats allows for a completely new type of automated data control, which was previously only possible in a time-consuming and manual way using several software packages at the same time, TrueOcean says. This tailored approach is designed to lead to enhancements in efficiency and accuracy, enabling professionals to extract maximum value from their data.

In addition, TrueOcean aims to simplify data management and retrieval by performing geospatial indexing for all supported datasets. This cloud-based geospatial indexing system, which goes beyond GIS systems, keeps a detailed record of the entire dataspace. This allows users to search and locate specific data and sensor coverage areas for regions of interest using different search parameters. The feature of TrueOcean's technology, in comparison to conventional GIS-systems, is that diverse raw datasets can be read and are automatically indexed, the company said.
