Welcome to BiteMetrix
To put it as simply as possible, the ocean is not a soup with each cubic litre the same as the next, but rather a complex dynamic force of water effected by changing currents, temperatures, depths, nutrient levels and of course life among other things. As these variations constantly change, they form areas higher in one or more of the above-mentioned factors which will in turn attract marine life or decrease the chances of marine life, including apex predators such as bull sharks, tiger sharks and the great white shark, the three species responsible for the majority of shark attacks in Australian waters. With the technological advances of satellite imagery, we can monitor these oceanographic factors with an increasing level of accuracy to determine where and when the likelihood of marine life including apex predators will occur.
