Saildrone begins Atlantic-to-Mediterranean carbon-observation mission
Saildrone began a multi-stage ocean-observation mission from Cabo Verde toward Mediterranean monitoring sites.
Evidence notes
- The first phase surveyed ocean eddies around Cabo Verde.
- GEOMAR led the initial research phase.
- Saildrone USVs were selected for long distances between remote carbon-observation sites.
Company context
Saildrone builds and operates uncrewed surface vehicles for maritime intelligence, ocean mapping, ISR and environmental monitoring. Its platforms combine wind or solar power, onboard sensing and autonomy for long-endurance ocean missions.
