HydroSurv Funded to Commercialize Robotic Seagrass Solution
Beauty.The technology package has already significantly advanced seagrass mapping capabilities. HydroSurv started to develop the non-invasive solution, with Innovate UK support, in early 2022 in collaboration with the University of Plymouth and Valeport. This previous work focused on refining acoustic ground discrimination techniques from the robotic vessel platforms and was successfully demonstrated in live trials over the past two years. The partners envisage that this next stage of technology development will propel the concept towards scale deployment and commercial viability.HydroSurv's cloud-based
Fugro Gets Dutch Offshore Wind Zone Survey Job
with Fugro’s geophysical vessel Fugro Pioneer.Onboard are customized digital streamers and processing technology that enable 2D ultra-ultra-high resolution (UUHR) surveys.Using proprietary software and decimeter accuracy positioning systems, this advanced data acquisition method enables detailed ground modelling and interpretation of near surface geology to inform future geotechnical investigations and the design of offshore wind farms.The data will also be used for planning geotechnical investigations and design of the offshore wind farm and installations, according to Fugro.“One of Fugro&rsquo
Sonardyne Holds Seabed Deformation Technical Workshop
Institution of Oceanography in California. As well as providing the stunning backdrop for this event, Scripps Institution of Oceanography furnished instruments for the workshop from the large pool of our equipment.GNSS-A and AZA are two independent technologies that are providing scientists with a ground-breaking new toolset for measuring seabed deformation caused by plate tectonic movements:• GNSS-A involves accurate (centimetric) global reference framework (principally horizontal) positioning of Fetch transponders on the seabed using an Uncrewed Surface Vehicle (USV).• AZA is a technique
Partners Come Together to Preserve Marine Biodiversity at Khalifa Port
of 48 Biohuts in Khalifa Port.Designed to restore biodiversity and promote marine life in coastal and harbor areas, the Biohut module is a submerged structure that provides a safe and supportive habitat for marine life to thrive. The modules are specially designed to provide a refuge and breeding ground for a variety of marine species, including fish, crustaceans, and other marine life essential to the health of coastal ecosystems, particularly in environments where it has been disturbed or damaged by human activity.Biohut modules come in the form of modular cages, made from eco-friendly, non-toxic
