What Are Data Buoys? A Look at Their Purpose and Function
Data buoys are crucial tools for oceanographic and meteorological monitoring, collecting real-time environmental data in marine settings. Here’s what they typically measure:
How Buoy Data Is Collected and Used The data collected from buoys serves a range of important functions. It can be transmitted in real time to shore-based or ship-based stations, providing immediate insights into ocean and weather conditions. In addition to real-time transmission, the data is often stored for future retrieval, allowing for in-depth scientific analysis over time. It also plays a critical role in feeding broader data systems, such as the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS), and contributes to the accuracy of weather forecasting models worldwide
