Digitizing aquaculture with Connected Seafarm

Remote monitoring for aquaculture systems with Connected Seafarm. Monitor key environmental parameters, detect for algal blooms, centralize feeding and monitor your all of sites from anywhere on Earth on a single system.

Connected Seafarm offers comprehensive digital solutions for remote aquaculture systems management. These solutions are quick and easy to deploy, comprising in-situ sensor devices and an off-grid capable, drop-in, satellite-enabled connectivity infrastructure. This infrastructure automatically transfers data to an intuitive data insights platform, accessible from anywhere.

Connected Seafarm can transfer data from hundreds of sensor devices within a 15 km range via the cloud, allowing access to hundreds of data points across an entire farm using a single system.

Critical farm data accessible from anywhere

Farm monitoring away from site or shore

Connected Seafarm's insights platform displays continuous and easy-to-understand data across all of your sites that can be accessed by local or central times at any time.

Get continuous insights on:

  • Key environmental parameters such as: water temperature, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll-a, salinity, turbidity, weather.
  • Additional remote satellite imagery provides forecasts for advanced detection of algae blooms and threshold alerts for ocean current, wave height and more.
  • Set threshold alerts to notify personnel when intervention is required to protect stock and site health.
  • Store, visualize and interpret current and historic data for trend analysis.

Connected Seafarm: how it works

Simply connect IoT devices, such as sensors, to securely transmit data via LoRaWAN across multiple pens, farms and infrastructure and unlock data-driven insights to optimise operational performance, reduce risk, and make informed business decisions.

Connected Seafarm  provides a drop-in private network to securely digitize any farm in less than six hours. Industrially certified for extreme operating environments, Connected Seafarm automatically switches between satellite and cellular, so your operational data keeps flowing. Resilient and futureproof, it can be deployed anywhere—on, near, or offshore. 

Our intuitive custom built aquaculture insights dashboard is designed to translate raw sensor data into valuable actionable insights that can be shared with local and central teams. Securely store, replicate pen layout, visualize, and interpret current and historic data. Or if you prefer, with our robust API, you can easily integrate Connected Seafarm with internal systems and workflows, so you have the data you need to make informed wider business decisions— fast.

Comprehensive Solutions for Digital Farm Monitoring

Remote feed monitoring

Centralize your feeding operations across all of your farm sites on the same system and unlock real-time video and feed controls pen-by-pen via satellite with Connected Seafarm, regardless of operating conditions. Identify prime feeding conditions and administer feed from the touch of a button remotely from anywhere - enabling uninterrupted feed operations.

Algae bloom monitoring solution

Algae blooms can have a devastating impact to the health of a farms stock. Connected Seafarm's algal bloom monitoring solution combines in-situ environmental data with satellite-enabled earth observation technologies for a clear view of operations in and beyond the farm, enabling early intervention from potentially harmful blooms.

Environmental monitoring solution

Benefit from remote monitoring of environmental conditions across your farms pen-by-pen. Get continuous data on key parameters, such as dissolved oxygen, water temperature and chlorophyll. Set-up threshold alters to notify key personnel to take quick action when parameters are a potential danger to fish health.

Krucial Connected Seafarm – Use Cases

Aquaculture - Use Case - Feed Barge Monitoring-2

Feed barge monitoring

Feed barges can be a significant investment for operators, and for many are key to helping provide more efficient methods of feed care, but minor unseen faults—such as a latch failing to close—can pose a huge risk.

By remotely monitoring sensor data across key barge areas, like latches and doors, Connected Seafarm allows barge personnel to address potential issues before they can develop into more serious risks.

  • Get alerts when latches, doors and other openings are compromised
  • Accurately plan resource models with up-to-date info on changing weather conditions
  • Reduce the need for on-site presence, with 24/7 visibility from your IoT devices
  • Reduce the impact of technical and maintenance issues on fish welfare, the environment, and your business
Environmental monitoring

Environmental monitoring

Fish farmers benefit from complete and continuous visibility of environmental conditions on their sites —for example temperature and dissolved oxygen levels—to ensure fish welfare. While sensors provide the means to monitor these parameters remotely, for operations in remote, off-grid locations, poor connectivity makes it difficult to get complete and accurate data.

Connected Seafarm from Krucial gives you a clearer view of your operations—with better quality and quantity of data. Meaning you can work smarter, even in places where supporting communications infrastructure cannot be guaranteed.

  • Continuously monitor environmental conditions across all your sites
  • Detect and address environmental changes earlier than ever
  • Increase survivability of fish and other marine life, and prevent loss of stock
  • Respond quickly to changing conditions and identify potential risks
New site surveillance

New site surveillance

When opening new sites, fish farmers benefit from having an understanding of the conditions before applying for permission. But for fish farming sites further offshore, connectivity can prove challenging. This makes it hard to get the quality, continuous data needed for early surveillance, which prevents fish farmers from remotely assessing the viability of potential new sites. 

Connected Seafarm from Krucial gives fish farm operators the resilient connectivity they need to gain early visibility of site conditions—even where supporting communications infrastructure cannot be guaranteed.

  • Get valuable insights into environmental conditions, like tides and currents
  • Assess water quality and potential pollution sources
  • Remotely monitor conditions with 24/7 visibility from IoT devices
  • Make informed decisions with a clear understanding of potential site viability
