- The European Digital Twin Ocean (EU DTO) is a multi-dimensional and near real-time virtual representation of the Ocean, combining marine observations, artificial intelligence, advanced Ocean modelling operating on high-performance computers and accessible to all. A flagship initiative of the European Commission’s Mission Restore Our Ocean and Waters, it is co-developed by Mercator Ocean International with the Flanders Marine Institute and other European partners, harnessing key EU assets and cutting-edge technology.
- The first EU DTO pre-operational platform will be unveiled at the Digital Ocean Forum 2024 and broadcast online. The EU DTO offers unprecedented capabilities for marine data exploration, next generation Ocean modelling, and science-driven decision making.
