ARMS
Automated Relocatable Modeling System™
Fathom Science’s proprietary AI/ML augmented ocean forecasting platform. Hyper-local, validated, and actionable ocean intelligence for marine operations worldwide.
A Dynamic Digital Twin of the Ocean
At its core, ARMS is a validated, cloud-optimized system that ingests a massive volume of public and private ocean data from satellites, buoys, and global weather models, and processes it through Fathom Science’s proprietary AI-augmented physics-based model.
The result is a dynamic, high-resolution digital twin of the ocean, available anywhere on the globe. ARMS serves as the foundational engine for our entire suite of products and custom-configured enterprise solutions.
Three Core Capabilities That Set ARMS Apart
Hyper-Local and Relocatable
Traditional ocean forecasting relies on large, static regional models that lack the detail needed for modern marine operations. ARMS deploys high-resolution forecasts anywhere in the world’s oceans, whether for a fixed platform or a vessel in transit, delivering actionable intelligence specific to your exact location.
Physics-Based with AI Augmentation
ARMS combines the proven accuracy of physics-based ocean models with the speed and learning capabilities of artificial intelligence. Our models are grounded in the fundamental laws of ocean dynamics, then augmented with AI to accelerate computation and deliver forecasts faster and with greater accuracy.
Validated and Reliable
ARMS is not a theoretical model. It is a proven, operational platform rigorously validated through extensive industry pilots and comparisons against real-world observational data. Our commitment to validation ensures that the forecasts we provide are consistently reliable for mission-critical operations.
Explore ARMS in Action
Forecasts that Follow Your Fleet
ARMS provides dynamic, vessel-centric forecasts that move with your fleet. By delivering hyper-local data on currents, waves, and weather directly to your operational systems, we empower you to optimize routes in real-time, reduce fuel consumption and emissions, improve schedule accuracy, and enhance the safety of your crew and cargo across entire voyages, especially when entering and leaving ports.
Site-Specific Intelligence for Offshore Assets
ARMS delivers critical environmental intelligence for fixed and floating offshore assets. From exploration and construction to daily operations and decommissioning, our platform provides precise, site-specific forecasts that improve operational planning, increase safety margins for personnel and equipment, and support long-term risk assessment. The platform’s scalability allows for the simultaneous monitoring of an entire portfolio of assets around the world.
The Engine Behind Next-Generation Machine Insights
ARMS is the engine that powers next-generation marine insights. The platform provides the foundational ocean data, such as currents, temperature, and wind, that our team uses to build custom predictive models. Whether it’s identifying optimal fishing zones (as in our FishCast product), forecasting the drift of marine debris, or informing onboard AI navigation systems in autonomous surface vehicles with present and future ocean conditions, ARMS provides the high-quality, validated data needed to turn environmental conditions into actionable, predictive intelligence.
