About IIM

The Institute of Marine Research (IIM-CSIC) is one of the main marine research centers in the Iberian Peninsula. Looking at the Atlantic from Vigo, a city with a strong connection with the sea, the IIM-CSIC faces the challenge of increasing our knowledge about the ocean, from its physical characteristics to the food we take from it and the processes that bind the whole system together.

Innovation

While our research provides us with new knowledge about our sea and shores, at the Institute of Marine Research we are committed to go a step further, creating new collaborations with the industry and other economic activities, be they already 'established' industries, such as fisheries or aquaculture, or 'emerging' ones, such as ocean observation.

Work & Study

Marine scientists, lab technicians, biologists, chemists and engineers, but also economists, lawyers or communicators (both working and in training) contribute to the interdisciplinary nature of our center. With more than 200 employees, the IIM-CSIC is a large community of people who work together for the sake of science, knowledge and sustainability.

  • Capabilities | Development of Artificial Intelligence applications for fisheries management
    Fisheries

    Development of Deep Learning algorithms that allow automating fisheries monitoring processes and reducing time and costs compared with processing by human observers. The applications developed range from innovative systems for real-time remote electronic monitoring, which identify and quantify total catches of fishing vessels (e.g., iObserver), to new image recognition techniques that allow individually identifying fish and estimating population parameters.

  • Prototype | SURCOM-pH: Low-cost sensor for autonomous ocean acidification monitoring
    Marine instruments & sensors

    Prototype of a low-cost autonomous pH sensor based on ISFET (ion sensitive field effect transistor) technology adapted for continuous ocean monitoring.

    The sensor yields a high precision (± 0.003 pH units) and a very low measurement drift, provides real-time coastal data transmission, and its autonomy allows for over one year of continuous transmission.

    The prototype has been tested for long periods in coastal areas and has been calibrated against commercial sensors, providing very good reliability. For further information, please contact us by e-mail.
