Platform Benefits

One system instead of thousands of hours.

eOceans delivers continuously updated insight—replacing fragmented, manual tools and workflows.

A chart showing the relationship between project needs and data processing tasks in research projects, with tasks like record data, digitize data, clean data, manage data, analyze data, map data, visualize data, write report, format report, share findings, report generation, and research dissemination. It includes overlapping process icons, a green bar indicating costs, and a logo for eOceans.

Track everything, everywhere

Big or small, local or global—your projects can use any data sources, include any team members, and engage any collaborators.

1 billion+ variable combinations—

All metrics in one place

Your efforts, species, activities, biodiversity, pollution, social values, fisheries, policies, markets, diseases, engagement, and more.

Backed by experts—

Credibility, auditable

Built by PhD scientists — experts in socio-ecology, environmental monitoring, and policy — eOceans handles all your complex data tasks. It’s like having a million dollar data science team working full-time on your project.

Data used, without delays—

Mobilise data, on demand

Magic Uploads™ turns your existing data into instant insights—helping you act faster, demonstrate impact, and build trust. Clean datasets can also be downloaded for maximum use and efficiency.

Scale—

Collaborate locally, globally

With eOceans, it's easy to link efforts across projects, teams, regions, and scales. The Ocean Ledger™ and Global Biodiversity Ledger™ are built right in the app to make it effortless to set shared goals and track success.

Old, manual tools are insufficient for today’s fast changing world.

  • A person wearing a black and pink watch writing notes on a notepad, with a partially visible paper on the right side.

    Paper logsheets?

    Messy handwriting in the field, then hours spent re-entering data into spreadsheets—doubling the time and risk of mistakes.

  • A MacBook Pro on a desk with a coding program open on the screen, and a closed plant book along with some pens and a folded cloth on the left side.

    R and GIS?

    Using R and GIS can easily eat up hundreds to thousands of hours.

    Data to be used 'later'?

    Data analysis reveals what’s happening and what’s needed—but most data goes unused, underused, or delayed. That’s wasted effort, costing time, money, credibility, and smarter decisions.

    Open Acces 'Free' apps?

    Nothing is “free.” Who owns data and who can access it matters. All risks must be disclosed and mitigated in research. Some communities — including tourism groups, fisheries, and First Nations — have called for bans on open-access nature-logging apps after harvesters used them to locate medicinal plants and animals. The open-access model must be used with care.

  • People working on computers in an office, one person focused on coding on a monitor.

    Consultants?

    If you don’t have in-house data science experts, expect to spend $60,000–$150,000+ per project—and still start from scratch next time. Efficiency is key.

    In-house data science?

    Just one data scientist can take 8 months to execute even a small data project—at $100/hour, that’s $140,000. Shouldn’t their time be spent on important tasks, not on basics like data cleaning and exploratory analysis?

  • Desk phone on a black office desk with computer monitors in the background.

    Phone hotlines?

    Many organizations still use phone hotlines for public reports—animals, injured animals, pollution, illegal activities, invasive species, and more—but the experience is frustrating, leading to apathy, underused data, and growing conflict.

  • Guessing, without data?

    Decision making—without analysed data—means you are left guessing. What’s the cost of getting it wrong?

Everything you need, all in one place.
