Design. Build. Explore.
Engineers, videographers, data specialists, and educators. We are the Global Foundation for Ocean Exploration. Our team designs, builds, and operates robotic platforms that explore the most extreme underwater environments on the planet—from the deep ocean to the largest lakes.
Our GFOE team is providing support on NOAA Ocean Exploration’s mapping expeditions this year. In this photo, GFOE video engineer Roland Brian stands on deck of NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer as the ship goes under the Golden Gate Bridge in San Fransisco.
