The Naval Oceanographic Office (NOFS) is a key component of the U.S. Navy responsible for collecting, analyzing, and distributing oceanographic and atmospheric data to support naval operations. Located at the John C. Stennis Space Center in Mississippi, NOFS provides critical information on ocean currents, temperature, salinity, and seabed characteristics. This data enhances mission planning, navigation safety, and submarine operations. NOFS also conducts hydrographic surveys and develops ocean models and forecasting tools. By delivering precise environmental intelligence, NOFS ensures naval forces maintain tactical and strategic advantages in maritime environments. It plays a vital role in both defense readiness and scientific research.
