Manolin Launches Next-Generation Features for Watershed Explorer to Empower Fish Farms Globally

Bergen, Norway - October 2nd, 2024 – 

Manolin, a leading data intelligence platform for aquaculture, is excited to announce a major update to its Watershed Explorer platform. The new release introduces industry-leading features designed to help fish farms track, analyze, and compare data more effectively than ever before. The updated platform will be available to all customers in late-October 2024.

With the goal of becoming the most valuable resource for farm decision-making, Watershed Explorer’s new enhancements provide fish farms with deeper insights, advanced population-level data modeling, precise forecasting, and near real-time data to drive better outcomes. These new features have undergone significant beta testing with a select group of users, ensuring they are optimized for real-world performance and deliver actionable intelligence from day one.

New key features of this update include:

• Near Real-Time Benchmarking & Production Tracking: Offering up-to-the-moment data on farm performance and benchmarks, providing farms with insights that allow for quick, informed adjustments.
• Product Data Precision: Monitor how farm products perform with high precision, allowing farmers to fine-tune strategies based on up-to-date information.
• Improved Workflows & Risk Models: Enhanced usability and more accurate risk management tools streamline farm operations and improve overall efficiency.
• Global Expansion Capabilities: The platform now supports farms globally, facilitating benchmarking and data comparisons across regions.
• Improved User Permissions: Collaborate across multiple organizations with seamless data sharing and more flexible access controls.
• Advanced Forecasting Tools: Watershed Explorer’s new forecasting capabilities allow farms to predict performance metrics with greater accuracy, leveraging near real-time data and historical trends.

"Our mission has always been to provide farms with the most powerful tools for decision-making," said John Costantino, CTO of Manolin. "This Watershed Explorer update introduces a new level of intelligence, enabling farms to not only track their current operations but also forecast future performance with remarkable accuracy. With these enhancements, we're pushing new boundaries of what's possible in aquaculture."

One of the most significant advancements in this platform update is the complete remodeling of Manolin’s data through population-level data tracing, providing farms with unparalleled insights into fish populations. Previously, predictions were based on data from individual cages; now, population tracing incorporates the entire history of the fish population. While fish move, sensors and cameras remain stationary, which historically caused inconsistencies. Population-level tracing ensures that all recorded data is accurately tied to each fish, significantly improving the accuracy of predictions across all features in Watershed Explorer. This advanced tracing system sets a new standard for data accuracy and visibility in aquaculture.

"Population-level data tracing is a game-changer for aquaculture," said Costantino. "It not only provides farms with clearer insights into each generation but enables our platform to trace every aspect of fish health and performance, raising the bar for data-driven decision-making across the industry."

Watershed Explorer’s new features push the limits of what aquaculture data intelligence can achieve, empowering farms to not only track current performance but also manage future outcomes with precision.

“These updates ensure that Watershed Explorer remains the essential tool for fish farms worldwide,” Costantino added. “With advanced forecasting, near real-time product tracking, and global support, we're helping farms achieve better outcomes in every production cycle.”
