SeaScan AI

About SeaScan AI

Cleaner oceans start with seeing what’s down there.

SeaScan AI turns raw side-scan sonar into a searchable map of marine debris and seabed anomalies — helping research teams find ghost nets, drums and tyres faster, and send recovery crews exactly where they are needed.

Open Live Sonar
01

Scan

An ROV or uncrewed surface vessel tows a side-scan sonar, painting an acoustic image of the seabed on both port and starboard channels.

02

Detect

A sonar-tuned deep-learning detector finds plastic, metal, tyres and ghost fishing gear in every frame and flags unusual returns as anomalies.

03

Locate

Every detection is geo-referenced with depth and size estimates, so it can be plotted on the survey map and revisited.

04

Recover

Verified targets are exported as reports for divers, clean-up crews and environmental agencies.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between debris and an anomaly?+

Debris is a confidently classified man-made object. An anomaly is an unusual sonar return the model cannot classify with confidence — it is worth a closer look by a diver or camera ROV.

How accurate is the model?+

The current SeaScan Detector v2.3 reaches 0.91 mAP@50 on our held-out coastal benchmark. You can switch models and tune thresholds in Model Settings.

Which sonar formats are supported?+

XTF, JSF and SEG-Y recordings, plus PNG waterfall exports. Upload them in Dataset Management.

How do I verify a detection?+

Open Detection Results, select a row and mark it as Verified or False positive. Your feedback is used to improve future model versions.
