NOAA-NMFS-OSI | Optics Strategic Initiative (OSI) Group

The Optics Strategic Initiative (OSI) envisions fostering a transformative shift in the National Marine Fisheries Service's (NMFS) approach to optical data collection and processing, reshaping the landscape of resource management and environmental stewardship. We aim to catalyze the transition from traditional ship-based and aerial surveys to platform-agnostic, scalable automated systems, thereby enriching the value and applicability of optics. In a world grappling with climate change and resource scarcity, the OSI stands at the forefront of NOAA's commitment to a resilient Blue Economy and a Climate Ready Nation.
