“…Sea Ice is a very important factor for ships in the Baltic Sea. We have there a heavy maritime transportation and for half of the year the ocean is half covered so we have to make things better. Previously for instance we used about 200/250 SAR images (Synthetic Aperture Radar). Nowadays (with MyOcean), we use 700 to 800 images, which means better navigation and fewer hazards.…”
