Obscape Wave Buoy

OBS-BUOY400 Wave Buoy

Compact, portable and rugged

The Obscape OBS-Buoy400 is an affordable, lightweight, and reliable metocean buoy that collects and transmits real-time full wave and sea surface temperature data. Superior elliptical design for the most accurate wave tracking and temperature measurements in its class. The Wave Buoy uses a combination of motion sensors and an electronic compass to measure the directional wave field with high accuracy. This yields the directional wave spectrum and all parameters that can be derived from it, such as the 1-dimensional energy-density spectrum and a range of bulk wave parameters (significant wave height, peak wave period, peak wave direction, etc.).

 

Key Features:

  • Real-time data (4g with 2g fallback)
  • Bulk wave parameters
  • Directional wave spectrum
  • Battery powered (Lithium, primary or alkaline)
  • GPS position & watch circle
  • SST sensor

 

Main Application Areas:

  • Work compliance monitoring
  • Marine & Coastal engineering
  • Oceanographic research
  • Environmental monitoring
