Empowering the smartest decisions you'll make

BIA Boating Data provides insights about where, when, and how people move around your waterways. By analysing over 1 billion real-time and historical data points, uncover the data that really matters to you, helping you make data-driven decisions.

Make data-driven decisions for everyday waterway challenges

We help governments, companies, industry, consultants and researchers plan and understand waterway trends with greater accuracy.

Our anonymized and aggregated data reports and analytics capabilities empower stakeholders and decision makers to go beyond census data and answer questions about the waterways that were previously considered unanswerable, unlocking significant public safety, economic and environmental outcomes.

Unprecedented insights for governments, industry and researchers

Reports and dashboard options include unprecedented insights into boating behavior, such as:

  • Activity duration, length and frequency

  • Economic impact of boating activity

  • Identified risk areas and safety concerns

  • Boating infrastructure usage

  • Environmental impact of human activities

How it works

BIA Boating Data is powered by our partnership with DECKEE, the free boating safety app partner of the Boating Industry Association.

Boaters, anglers, sailors and paddlers log their on-water activities with the free DECKEE mobile app every week. With respect for the community’s privacy, DECKEE and the BIA strips this dataset of identifiers and aggregates it. What is left is a vast source of trends and insights.
