🌊 New Atlantis: Living Oceans Repository

Welcome to theNew Atlantis Living Oceans Repository or NALOR, we are building a high quality library of modular pipelines focused around measuring biodiversity. Our mission is building an open set of tools that addres biodiversity loss in our oceans through providing a viable business model to Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). We are doing this by building an open marine biodiversity analytics platform to monitor and forecast the health of Marine Protected Areas. The data will be used as a foundation for marine biocredits and blue carbon credits to be generated.

🧬 Pipelines

The pipelines section of NALOR is a collection of easy-to-deploy pipelines for accomplising different processing tasks on ocean data samples.

πŸͺ„ Datasets

A library of dataset references to sample running the pipelines. We standardize our datasets through datacards, providing a standard way to look at measured biodiversity and tell if you've got the whole picture.

βš™οΈ Installation

You can set up the living oceans repo on your workstation at home in one line!

git clone https://github.com/new-atlantis-dao/Living-Oceans.git

Congratulations, you can now start using NALOR.

πŸ“― Tutorial

NALOR can be used to explore a local section of ocean's planktonic network. A written tutorial on how to use the NALOR pipeline will be released at a later date.
