Upload bathymetry, salinity, temperature — or drop a Lowrance / Humminbird / XTF file and we’ll pull the environment for you. Score against 67+ species, stack regulatory overlays, project to 2100 under CMIP6, and export a QGIS-native permit package. Every tolerance envelope traces to a citation.
The engine, the overlays, the value-add analyses, and the deliverables that regulators expect - in one workflow.
Every tolerance envelope traces to a peer-reviewed source, not a guess — oysters, cold-water and warm-water corals, sandeels, maerl, and geoduck are backed by published presence/absence and physiology studies cited inline in your report. Freshwater mussels and 4 invasive bivalves extend the same rigor to restoration and risk-forecasting work. Coverage spans conservation-priority and commercially harvested species across polar to tropical ranges, so one platform handles siting decisions most tools would need three subscriptions for. New species and regions ship every quarter, prioritized by customer request.
Permitting baselines, aquaculture-specific layers, CMIP6 climate projections, near-real-time ocean feeds (buoys, OISST, HAB alerts), and economic / ecosystem-service valuation.
Score against RCP 4.5/8.5 and SSP 2-4.5/5-8.5 at 2030, 2050, 2080, and 2100 horizons. Compare scenarios side by side.
Stack any overlays - MPAs, navigation channels, military closures, cable corridors - and get hard/soft/advisory conflict tagging per cell.
Drop in a Lowrance .sl2/.sl3, Humminbird .dat, or Triton .xtf side-scan recording. Get a 5-class substrate map (mud / sand / gravel / cobble / bedrock) aligned to the Folk-5 scheme regulators already recognise. Pure-R readers, no Python bindings, no GPL contamination.
NEPA / EIA / SEA boilerplate auto-generated. Methodology citations, conflict summary, economic valuation, mitigation recommendations - one click.
Quantify uncertainty in your scoring. Per-cell p5/p50/p95 quantiles, one-at-a-time sensitivity index per input.
Upload a CSV of your ground-truthed presence / absence records and the model refits its Bayesian tolerance envelopes to match. Optional bootstrap power analysis reports the 95% CI on every fitted parameter and tells you how many more surveys you'd need to halve the uncertainty.
Weighted composite scoring across aquaculture / fisheries / conservation / tourism preferences. Map Pareto trade-offs.
Hash-chained JSONL log of every run, overlay loaded, and report exported. Designed for regulator submission and FOIA-ready archival.
One pipeline. Browser, desktop, or QGIS plugin - same engine.
CSV with lat/lon and environment vars — or drop a raw sonar file. .sl2, .sl3, .xtf, .dat all decode natively; .all, .kmall, .s7k via Python backends.
Choose from 67+ species. Toggle regulatory packs, climate scenarios, and value-add analyses for your tier.
Upload a CSV of your own ground-truthed presence / absence records. The Bayesian posterior refits to match your site, not just the peer-reviewed default.
AHP-weighted scoring with documented per-species tolerances and peer-reviewed methodology. Every run audit-logged.
Interactive heatmap in-browser, GeoTIFF for QGIS, PDF compliance report, scored CSV, .qgz project file.
