# The Ocean Impact NavigatorThe Ocean Impact Navigator (OIN) was developed by 1000 Ocean Startups, with support from SYSTEMIQ, as the first impact framework designed specifically for the ocean innovation ecosystem.


## This open-source tool helps make it easier to measure, track, and report the positive impact of ocean solutions.

By providing a clear set of shared indicators, the OIN brings consistency and clarity to how ocean innovators assess their progress.

## OIN Project

The Ocean Impact Navigator is composed of four parts:


### OCEAN IMPACT NAVIGATOR FRAMEWORK

A framework of 34 KPIs that represent the foundational ocean health KPIs that start-ups can use to report impact.


### THE OCEAN IMPACT NAVIGATOR REPORT

A report that introduced the Ocean Impact Navigator framework and outlined the need for such a framework and how it could add value.


### TECHNICAL APPENDIX

An appendix documenting how to report on the 34 KPIs of the Ocean Impact Navigator Framework.


### THE OCEAN IMPACT NAVIGATOR DIGITAL TOOL

Following the success of the Ocean Impact Navigator, 1000OS developed the framework into an online, open-source digital tool to allow members to report impact against the Ocean Impact Navigator framework.


### IMPACT INVESTORS

Help investors identify the most impactful interventions for the ocean – providing a crucial strategic resource, given the blue economy remains under-invested and capital scarce


### ENABLERS

Enable the aggregation of impact data, creating visibility, synergies, and supporting effective decision-making, transparency and communication on shared progress towards a sustainable ocean economy


### START-UPS

Helps start-ups streamline and simplify impact measurement and reporting
