Power your most ambitious protected area initiatives.
Protected area teams collect vital data, but expert analysis is costly and often out of reach—leaving it unused. With an affordable monthly subscription, eOceans delivers instant insights, real-time metrics, and powerful storytelling tools to help you demonstrate success, secure support, and maximize MPA success.

Demonstrating MPA effectiveness is crucial for securing support and long-term success—but traditional assessments are slow, costly, and often out of reach. MPA teams can collect vast amounts of data, but without analysis, it’s wasted. eOceans transforms your data into real-time intelligence, tracks key metrics, and evaluates your impact—so you can secure resources and drive real change.
The app you’ve been dreaming of.
Designed by PhD scientists, eOceans removes the bottlenecks that slow you down — so your team can focus on solutions.
Empower your project with cutting-edge data science and actionable insights to move faster and make a measurable impact.
How eOceans helps Protected Area managers
eOceans was created to solve a critical problem: the need for real-time, affordable, and transparent protected area evaluations — to know they are effective and increase their support.
Before eOceans, protected area assessments were slow, costly, and out of reach—each one exceeding $1 million and requiring experts to divert from their core work just to compile data on biodiversity and environmental conditions. Few assessments considered anthropogenic threats, and social values were extremely rare, often limited to visitor counts.
As a result, many protected area teams couldn’t afford to measure or demonstrate their effectiveness.
We set out to change that. With eOceans, any protected area can be assessed in an ongoing way starting at under $100 per month—bringing real-time intelligence within reach.
Helping you:
-
Streamlining your workflow—from data collection to reporting and dissemination—so you get the results you need fast.
-
Every observation is a piece of the puzzle that describes what’s happening in that location at that time. eOceans stitches them together to tell meaningful stories.
-
By helping organizations, researchers, and others avoid reinventing the wheel—analyzing data for just one question at a time—we enable them to use data for multiple purposes, keeping everyone focused on what truly matters.
-
Unlock the full potential of our planet—by protecting and restoring ecosystems, we can double Earth’s $150 trillion in natural assets, securing a thriving future for all.
-
Through accountability, transparency, and inclusivity, Protected Area teams can gain the support they need to ensure their MPAs thrive and deliver lasting impact.
Save 80% of your time and effort.
Your focus should be on impact—not tedious, expensive, error-prone, high-risk data tasks.
eOceans automates data management, analysis, and reporting, eliminating bottlenecks and saving you time. It’s like adding a million-dollar data science and PR team to your project—so you can focus on what truly matters.
Effortless metric tracking
Track your survey effort, metrics of success, biodiversity, social values, threats, and more through space and time.
Data to spreadsheets, visualizations, dissemination
eOceans streamlines parts or all of your workflow—from data collection, quality control, interoperability, sharing, analysis, reports, and dissemination. No more wasted hours on writing and entering data, quality checking, writing and debugging R code, pointing and clicking your way to making outdated maps or reports, or guessing what your impact is. With automated visualizations and flexible sharing options, your work stays relevant, visible, and actionable.
Adding data to all your projects is effortless.
eOceans automatically shares based on the location, sampling methodology, and variables added.
Built for teamwork
Invite your team—colleagues, students, scientists, rangers, guardians, fishers, observers, field staff, the public, and more—to contribute data to your project. As they do, the results come to life in your dashboard.
They can even help you co-interpret the results in the app.
Launch your project in under an hour
To get started, it’s as simple as filling out a form that defines your study area, variables, analyses, and data sources.
