FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The automated cloud mapping platform for waterbodies, BioBase (biobasemaps.com), has recently undergone a change in ownership. Formerly under the Navico Group, a division of the Brunswick Corporation, BioBase has now been acquired by an independent group of investors. In the short term, users can expect minimal changes to the platform, and the development team will continue its operations from St. Paul, MN, USA.
Aquatic resource professionals have the option to subscribe to various plans and utilize the platform to process Lowrance® or Simrad® Sonar Logs in the cloud, generating detailed aquatic maps and GIS datasets. Looking ahead, this transition is expected to pave the way for enhancements in the platform’s capabilities and a quicker development cycle. These enhancements will include the ability to process sonar files of multiple formats and create additional map and data layers valuable to water and fisheries professionals.
“The team is enthusiastic about this new chapter and is eager to solidify BioBase as the premier solution for automated mapping derived from sonar files. Whether it’s mapping depth, aquatic vegetation, or bottom composition, we’re committed to delivering high value maps and datasets with minimal effort. This allows aquatic and fisheries professionals to focus on the important work of aquatic management and conservation and not making a map” stated BioBase President and Product Expert, Ray Valley.
