The UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO) has announced that the geospatial intelligence technology provider Geollect has won its ADMIRALTY Marine Innovation Programme challenge.
Launched last year, the program aims to help start-ups and innovators develop new solutions that support safe, secure and thriving oceans. This year’s second innovation challenge focused on
Transforming Maritime Risk and Insurance, tasking entrants with identifying, trialing and proving how marine geospatial data can be used to enhance maritime insurance products.
For the challenge, Geollect demonstrated how marine data sets such as bathymetry, maritime limits and AIS heatmaps, could enrich a number of dashboards that assist with sanction compliance, underwriting, loss prevention and investigation functions.
