Saildrone works with science partners like NOAA to gather valuable data about fisheries, oil seeps and spills, meteorology, and underwater bathymetry.

To ensure safe operations at sea, each saildrone carries an Automated Identification System (AIS) transceiver, enabling it to see surrounding commercial traffic. The vehicles are slow relative to other marine users and are designed to be highly visible. Each is equipped with a radar reflector, high visibility colors for daytime visibility, and a bright navigation light for nighttime awareness. Each vehicle carries four onboard cameras to provide domain awareness to operators at Saildrone Mission Control.
