New tool for mapping aquaculture potential

"Imagine you could draw a box anywhere in the ocean and instantly decide whether it might be a suitable site for aquaculture. Thanks to a new tool, OceanReports, aquaculture stakeholders—including seafood farmers, coastal managers and regulators, and environmental organizations—can now do just that... Within seconds, it generates custom spatial reports and infographics for any ocean space or “neighborhood.” These datasets include everything from ocean current speed to deep-sea corals and sponge observations in that area." - Excerpt from NOAA Fisheries
