What is BioBase?
BioBase leverages artificial intelligence to automate the generation of aquatic habitat maps and fish data from sonar recordings. By utilizing low-cost, powerful sonar devices like Lowrance® or Simrad®, the platform processes sonar files with sophisticated algorithms to produce detailed bathymetric, aquatic, and coastal habitat maps. These maps, along with spatial datasets, are delivered to a secure online account within minutes, enabling users to access and share their data anywhere through cloud-based storage.
The platform includes advanced features such as EcoFish™, which provides detailed fish counts, depths, relative sizes, and locations, and EcoSound™, which automates habitat mapping. BioBase supports various applications, including fisheries management, water resource conservation, and coastal studies, by offering tools like side-scan mosaics and custom GIS services. The technology is designed to help professionals focus on environmental analysis and conservation actions by streamlining data collection and map creation.
