A NOAA-affiliated research scientist pioneered a smaller, longer-lasting satellite tag design that anchors safely in the blubber layer of a whale. This engineering breakthrough improves scientists’ monitoring of baleen whale species.
Technology Readiness Levels are a framework to assess how ready a technology is for a specific use. The readiness scale runs from Level 1 (basic research stage) to Level 9 (fully ready to use).
We are paving the way for an efficient and robust data enterprise by bringing our data collection into a new era of innovative technologies and techniques.
A new real-time messaging network uses a well-established maritime navigation safety technology—the Automatic Identification System—to reduce the risk of vessel strikes involving North Atlantic right whales.
