NOAA Ocean Exploration is the only federal agency dedicated to exploring the global ocean. NOAA Ocean Exploration works with partners to identify priority areas for exploration, support innovations in exploration tools and capabilities, and encourage the next generation of ocean explorers, scientists, and engineers to pursue careers in ocean exploration and related fields. The data and information collected during our expeditions and the research we fund gives resource managers, the academic community, and the private sector the information they need to identify, understand, and manage ocean resources for this and future generations.
Since 2001, NOAA Ocean Exploration has funded numerous expeditions and makes data collected during these expeditions publicly available via NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information and the NOAA Ocean Exploration Data Atlas.
