What you get

Everything you need to find fish

Real satellite oceanography combined into a single, easy-to-read habitat score — interactive, zoomable, and updated every 12 hours.

🗺️
Fully Interactive Maps

Zoom from the full Oceania view — Australia, NZ, Indonesia, PNG and the Western Pacific — down to a single bay anywhere in the region. Every pixel stays sharp, every layer stays live — toggle species, SST, chlorophyll or currents in real time without reloading.

🎣
Multi-Species HSI

Separate Habitat Suitability Index models for Southern Bluefin Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna and Mahi-Mahi — each tuned to that species' preferred thermal window and prey environment.

🌡️
SST & Thermal Fronts

NASA MUR sea surface temperature at 0.02° resolution (~2.2 km per pixel). Thermal gradient overlays reveal rips, eddies and frontal zones.

🌊
SSH & Surface Currents

Copernicus altimetry (sea surface height anomaly) plus live surface current speed and direction — the eddies, rips and convergence zones that concentrate bait and pelagics, drawn straight from the source data used by commercial fleets.

Target species

Three species. One map.

Purpose-built HSI models for each species — tailored thermal ranges, prey signals and habitat preferences.

🔬

Actively expanding. RipVision AI currently tracks SBT, YFT and Mahi-Mahi. Additional species — including Striped Marlin, Broadbill Swordfish and Albacore — are in development and will be added as models are validated. This is a living product, growing with each season.

The data

Every layer, every source

No black boxes. Here's exactly what's inside the maps and where it comes from.

Habitat models

  • Southern Bluefin Tuna HSI RipVision model 0–1 habitat suitability score, tuned to SBT thermal preference
  • Yellowfin Tuna HSI RipVision model 0–1 habitat suitability score for tropical / sub-tropical YFT
  • Mahi-Mahi HSI RipVision model 0–1 habitat suitability for Coryphaena hippurus

Ocean data

  • Sea Surface Temperature NASA MUR 0.02° (~2.2 km/pixel), 10–28 °C jet palette
  • Chlorophyll-a Ocean colour 0–2 mg m⁻³ from satellite ocean colour — finds productive water
  • Temperature Breaks Derived from MUR Thermal gradient 0–0.13 °C/cell — rip and front intensity
  • Sea Surface Height Copernicus −0.3 to +0.3 m anomaly — reveals eddies and convergence
  • Surface Currents Copernicus 0–1.5 m/s magnitude field, plus animated flow lines
  • Bathymetry GEBCO 0–6000 m depth — shelf edge, canyons, seamounts

Overlays

  • Hillshade Toggle 3D relief shading over the active data layer
  • Depth Contours Toggle 50–2000 m isobaths
  • Animated Currents Toggle Velocity vector flow lines — Off / Short / Long trails

What the maps look like

Yellow & orange pixels = peak habitat. Purple = marginal. Black = unsuitable. Zoom into any patch of ocean across Oceania and the resolution holds.

The science

What is RipVision AI?

RipVision AI analyses real-time satellite oceanography to build a daily Habitat Suitability Index (HSI) for target pelagic species. Six environmental variables — sea surface temperature, chlorophyll-a concentration, sea surface height anomaly, mixed layer depth, thermal gradients and prey indicators — are combined into a single colour-coded map that shows where conditions are most favourable right now.

Data is fetched automatically from NASA's JPL MUR SST dataset at 0.02° resolution, MODIS Aqua daily chlorophyll, and Copernicus Marine Service altimetry and mixed layer products. The pipeline checks for new satellite data twice daily — note that NASA MUR SST is published with a ~24-hour processing lag, so maps typically reflect conditions from 24–48 hours ago.

The result is a tool that gives offshore anglers across Oceania the same quality of oceanographic intelligence previously available only to commercial fishing operations — delivered as an easy-to-read interactive web map, updated every 12 hours.
