Fugro has completed four years of continuous survey operations in New Jersey and New York for US-based offshore wind developer Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind. Supporting the site assessment of five projects across three lease areas totalling 1,000 km², Fugro worked with Atlantic Shores to develop a new data collection and management approach.
To manage the large volumes of data associated with this approach—upwards of 100 TB—Fugro collaborated with Atlantic Shores to create Fugro VirGeo. This cloud-based Geo-data engagement and delivery platform provides internal stakeholders with real-time project information for faster decision making both in the field and office. The platform also facilitated the digital deliverables to federal regulators, supplementing the thousands of pages of reports required by current permitting standards.
