Ocean Tracking Network is a global ocean research and technology development platform. OTN deploys acoustic receivers and oceanographic monitoring equipment in key ocean locations around the world to track the movements and survival of marine animals carrying acoustic tags.

OTN tracks many keystone, commercially important, and endangered animals including marine mammals, sea turtles, and fishes including sharks, sturgeon, eels, tuna, salmonoids, and cod.

To contribute to or access OTN's animal tracking and oceanographic data, please visit the data page.
