SargassoSense is a well-conceived open-data network that combines satellite remote sensing, in‑situ drifters, and community reporting to forecast and enable harvesting of sargassum for biochar and bioplastic value chains. The proposal scores well for scientific grounding and community orientation but lacks several essential methodological, baseline, and governance details required for fully verifiable impact claims—resulting in a solid but not top-tier integrity score (71/100).
