Miros Cloud is a service offering which is available alongside all of our core sensors as a subscription. These include
the Wave & Current Radar, Wavex®, and our non-directional wave monitoring and water level radar RangeFinder.
The Sea-State-as-a-Service (SSaaS) offering is an all-inclusive, scalable subscription plan including Miros dry, IoT-enabled sensors as well as the Miros Cloud service for easy data access.
How Does It Work?
Having reliable access to accurate sea state data is crucial for efficient operations in the offshore and maritime business. Miros Cloud simplifies data collection and remote access to collected data.
By making dry measurements of sea state available through the cloud as a service, we give customers access to real-time data while having a choice of whether or not to invest in the necessary equipment for data collection and transfer.
With the Sea-State-as-a-Service solution Miros takes on the risk of owning, insuring, and maintaining the sensors, so you don’t have to. The data is delivered hassle-free in Miros Cloud, at a predictable monthly rate.

3. Security & Data Access
All data is encrypted during the transfer process. Communication with our database service is strictly over HTTPS, using a secure SSL connection. This means that the data in transit is encrypted with a certificate agreed upon by both parties.
A backup is located in a different geographical region to the primary data centre provided by Microsoft Azure.
Users onshore or offshore with the appropriate login information can access the data. Active Directory is the default method for authentication.
Nobody has access to your data without using our database service – this is in the agreement with our Cloud provider, Microsoft Azure.
You can view your data, even in real time, in our web application. You can also download your data from this location. You can access your data at any time, from any location, and on any device so long as it has an Internet connection – and providing you have the necessary credentials and clearance.
Miros customers own their historical data and as such, customers decide how to use this data and what happens to it. The specifics of this are covered in more detail in the associated terms and conditions.
Yes, at an additional cost.
