Met-ocean Monitoring & Environmental Observation

Client: Confidential (Maritime Infrastructure DevelopmentSector)

Challenge

The project site is located in one of the most remotely accessible coastal environments, characterized by rough sea states, unpredictable weather cycles, and limited on-site logistical support. Establishing a long-term met-ocean observation network required precise planning, careful risk mitigation, and robust instrumentation capable of reliable operation in isolation.

Geomardy Approach

Geomardy designed a fully integrated met-ocean monitoring program combining wave, weather, current, and tidal measurements. Deployment procedures were adapted for difficult access conditions, and systems were configured to support continuous remote monitoring, ensuring uninterrupted data availability without frequent site visits. Field operations were executed with specialized marine safety protocols and optimized handling techniques for heavy instruments.

Outcome / Metrics

• Reliable remote met-ocean monitoring established in a challenging environment.
• Continuous collection of wave, wind, tide, and current parameters.
• Enhanced data quality supporting design criteria, numerical modelling, and coastal risk assessment.
• Optimized field operations achieved with minimal interruption despite harsh conditions.

Tech Stack & Deliverables

Wave rider buoy, weather monitoring systems, ADCP-based current measurement systems, tide gauge solutions, remote monitoring architecture, met-ocean datasets, and interpretive analysis reports.
