Ocean Data Factory Sweden

Short description of the action

ODF Sweden is the national marine data lab in Sweden. Our mission is to enable data-driven innovation by
both commercial and non-commercial actors to ensure that the ocean and its resources are managed in the
best possible and most sustainable way. In doing so, one of ODF Sweden’s goals is to enable Sweden to be
a global leader in sustainability and innovation in the global digital blue economy.
ODF Sweden is an arena for competence building and innovation within the ocean space and is open to all
who believe that crunching data from the ocean
- is fun,
- holds the answers to a sustainable blue economy, and
- becomes really productive and innovative when different competences do it together!
We conduct our activities in high-paced cycles focusing on selected themes, as described in our innovation
cycles (https://oceandatafactory.se/what-we-do/innovation/). Important tools in our activities include Artificial
Intelligence and Citizen Science.
