About Abyssal Claims
Abyssal Claims is a deep-sea and land mining transparency platform visualising ISA concession data, environmental risks, and ocean monitoring on an interactive 3D globe.
Abyssal Claims is an independent, non-commercial platform that brings 50+ public scientific and regulatory datasets — ISA deep-sea mining contracts, biodiversity, ocean chemistry, mine footprints, tailings, deforestation, fires, and more — onto a single interactive 3D globe. It surfaces data and links every layer back to its source; it does not advocate a policy position.
