Spaceborne Ocean Intelligence Network (SOIN) SOIN Project Goals • To advance Canada's ability to produce meteorology and oceanography products in support of maritime defence and civilian-security operations; b) to monitor mesoscale oceanographic fronts and eddies with spaceborne synthetic aperture radar sensors; c) To provide Canadian Forces MetOc Halifax with the operational tools to distribute resulting METOC products to civilian security-related operations.
