Thermal stress, bloom risk, runoff shock, operability and growing conditions, each rated favourable, marginal or unfavourable for the work you do, and an assistant that cites every source. Decision support, not a verdict: for shellfish closures follow the official bulletin.

How the data gets here
Every day we gather what the satellites, the sea and your own records say, put it into one shared language, match it to your site, and hand it back as five plain answers. Select any step to see the data behind it.
Open satellite, ocean and weather data, plus the records you already keep.

Five signals for the coming days, each with its reasons.
Questions answered from the same evidence.
Every signal is colour-coded
Shown for the demo site. Your own loggers and records are added when you join.
What each source looked like on a recent clear day, and exactly what we read from it.
Sentinel-2 & Sentinel-3, plus weather forecasts
Chlorophyll-a and satellite SST, 300 m to 2 km
Wind, rain, air temperature and light, 1940 to now
Ten-day wind, rain and light, 6-hourly
Buoys, tide gauges and ocean models
Temperature, salinity, currents, waves, nutrients, ~3 km, 10-day forecast
Measured sea temperature, wave height and wind offshore
Water level at Castletownbere, 15-minute means
Official phytoplankton counts and production-area status
What you already know and record
A cheap logger at stock depth checks the model against your water
Seasons of records give the signals something to be judged against
One line per decision; the assistant can cite it
Gaping, discoloured water, fouling, dated and captioned
Five signals
Not a verdict: each signal says whether the coming days look favourable, marginal or unfavourable for an activity or a species, and shows the evidence behind it.
Rating scale: FavourableMarginalUnfavourable
Outlook from today
Whether each of the next seven days is favourable, marginal or unfavourable for each activity you name (longline work, trestle access, harbour movements), from forecast wave height, period and direction, wind and tide in daylight. Days 6 and 7 carry low confidence.
Sea temperature at stock depth
Sea temperature at stock depth against the watch and stress thresholds of your species, bias-corrected with your own logger where you have one, else the nearest buoy.
Regional index, 0 to 100
A regional 0 to 100 index from satellite chlorophyll-a, the sea-temperature anomaly, calm days and catchment rain. The bay itself is not verified by it: for closures follow the official bulletin.
Conditions that favour phytoplankton growth, regional model, not a measurement of toxic species. For closures follow the official bulletin.
Salinity drop and catchment rain
Salinity drops after heavy catchment rain, from ERA5-Land and the ECMWF forecast over the bay's own catchment and the IBI model's salinity, confirmed by Sentinel-2 where cloud allows.
Growing-conditions index, 0 to 1
A 0 to 1 growing-conditions index for the species you stock, from temperature, light and day length, plus nutrients for seaweed.

Who it is for
One service, read five ways. Growers, co-ops and harbours apply for a monthly plan; agencies and insurers get scoped access or a custom quote.
Mussel longlines and oyster trestles: thermal stress at stock depth, runoff after rain, and whether the week's work windows look favourable, marginal or unfavourable.
Join the pilot →
Kelp growing conditions through the season, light and nutrients against climatology, and low-tide satellite checks of the lines.
Join the pilot →
Operability for harbour movements, boat trips and pier work from forecast waves, wind and tide: a two-week trial with your own limits.
Try it in your harbour →
Scoped, audited, read-only access to bay-level signals and event history through an MCP server, on request.

A bay-level risk index, skill tables and a back-tested event history, never an operator's records without their consent.

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals are a shared plan, adopted by every UN member state, for people and the planet up to 2030. These six are the ones Coastal Intelligence supports most directly.
Targets 2.3 · 2.4
Targets 8.3
Targets 12.2 · 12.3
Targets 13.1 · 13.3
Targets 14.2 · 14.a · 14.b
Targets 17.17
Coastal Intelligence is decision support. It contributes to these goals through the people who use it; it does not measure progress against them.
About us
Triskelion AI Systems Limited is an Irish AI systems company. It designs and builds AI products and systems for organisations in a range of sectors.
Coastal Intelligence, the service on this page, is one of those products, made for shellfish growers, seaweed farmers and small ports.
It turns open Copernicus satellite and ocean-model data, Marine Institute observations and bulletins, and the records operators keep themselves into five signals and an assistant that cites every source.
Every signal is traceable to the data behind it, and every answer carries its citations. It is decision support, not a verdict: for shellfish closures the official bulletin is the authority.
