NOAA USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO IMPROVE NAVIGATIONAL
SAFETY DATA
The NOAA Center for Operational Oceanographic Products
and Services (CO-OPS) is now using artificial intelligence to
extend and improve its existing real-time quality control monitoring
system. This system, called CORMS (Continuous Operational Real-time
Monitoring System) operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week
ensuring the availability and accuracy of the real-time water
levels, currents and meteorological data provided by CO-OPS
for navigational safety. CO-OPS is part of the NOAA Ocean Service.
