The problem

Maritime transportation accounts for almost 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions, projected to double in under 30 years. The IMO aims to reduce these emissions by 70% by 2050. Weather routing, a solution to cut fuel consumption and emissions, has only achieved 3-10% savings due to imprecise weather forecasts.

The need

Despite the extensive research that has been devoted during the last 50 years or so, today it is evident that traditional numerical forecast models have reached an accuracy/ resolution capacity mainly due to the chaotic character of the modeled physical processes and the extensive computational needs.

Our solution

AlongRoute is focused on developing advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models that leverage high-quality historical data to effectively learn and comprehend the intricacies of ocean physics. By harnessing this knowledge, AlongRoute provides highly accurate forecasts of crucial ocean parameters, thereby bolstering the efficacy of ship routing systems.

Accurate marine data

At the moment we are offering high-resolution, one-hourly forecasts of wave, wind and current parameters for the Mediterranean Sea on a 4x4km grid. Very soon we are planning to scale up serving the global oceans. Stay tuned!
