Run a licensing system where exploration companies pay automatic royalties to seismic data providers each time the data is licensed for use. Each licensing event is anchored against the original survey data and the royalty owed is calculated and paid to the provider automatically.
Turn manual license tracking into automatic royalty payment on every use of seismic survey data.
01.
The Provenance Notary binds each seismic dataset to its original provider, so every future license traces back to the survey it came from.
02.
The Royalty Standard module records each licensing event against the dataset, capturing who licensed it, when, and on what terms.
03.
The Royalty Clearing module computes the royalty owed to the provider from the license terms, so payment is never missed or miscalculated.
04.
Royalties are paid to the provider each time the data is licensed, replacing manual reconciliation across a dataset's long licensing life.
05.
A single survey licensed to many exploration companies is tracked as parallel license lines, each with its own royalty stream.
06.
The data provider sees every license and royalty payment on-chain, so usage of their expensive-to-collect survey is fully accounted for.
Follow a single seismic dataset from registration through a new license to an automatic royalty payment.

Cerulea decomposes data licensing royalties into modular contracts. Each layer registers the survey, grants licenses, calculates royalties, and pays the provider automatically.
Automatic licensing royalties are a horizontal capability. Here is how different actors in the seismic data market put the shared ledger to work.
Get paid a royalty on every use of expensive-to-collect survey data, with full visibility into who licensed it and when across its long commercial life.
Key Asset Types
License datasets with terms and payments handled automatically, removing manual royalty accounting and disputes over past usage.
Key Asset Types
Verify licensing and royalty flows from one on-chain record, supporting brokerage and audit of seismic data rights without manual reconciliation.
Key Asset Types
Whether you are bridging a provider's data management systems or letting exploration companies license natively, Cerulea routes both into one royalty ledger.
For providers on legacy data management systems. Survey and license records are translated into signed on-chain events through the API gateway.

The legacy timeline reflects data rights integration benchmarks. Wiring data management systems, building custom license tracking and royalty logic, and shipping automatic payment for an average catalogue takes a baseline of 7 months. Building the same architecture on Cerulea takes a baseline of 2 weeks, because Cerulea Studio visually translates your license and royalty rules into pre-audited WebAssembly binaries and provisions the royalty ledger instantly.
