Quiet Capital says ocean data gap holds back maritime AI progress

• Better ocean observation could improve maritime pricing and voyage planning over the next decade, according to an analysis of maritime data gaps.
• More than 80% of global goods trade by volume moves by sea, underscoring the economic stakes of unreliable maritime information.
• Satellite connectivity and onboard computing enable working vessels to share observations along existing routes, supplementing incomplete vessel-tracking data.
• Greater visibility could strengthen charter negotiations, improve assessments of port delays and give insurers better evidence of conditions vessels encounter.
• Repeated observations could build training data for autonomous vessels, which does not yet exist at sufficient scale.
