There are lots of benefits for oyster cultivators and farmers who use S3AM technology, including:

Maps and data of lease bottom conditions, maps of crop inventory (size and distribution over time)

  • Planned paths for boat and dredge, saving time and increasing efficiency

  • Suggestions on planting locations and amounts

  • Real-time information on shellfish size, growth, health, and mortality prediction

  • Data to support more efficient harvesting resulting in reduced labor and fuel consumption

The S3AM Team will be working closely with aquaculture industry cultivators on the East, West, and Gulf Coasts as the project unfolds. Check back for updates on our industry partners in aquaculture and conservation.
