OceanServer Awarded Navy AUV Contract

This is the fourth such award to OceanServer Technology (OTI) over the past two years and represents the most sophisticated vehicle developed by OTI to date. Fully equipped with Side-scan Sonar (SSS), Doppler Velocity Log (DVL), Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP), Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) sensor, and Multi-beam Imaging sonar, the lightweight Iver is the industry leader in man-portable AUV systems. The NSW anticipates operationally deploying the vehicles soon after delivery.

All Iver2 AUV models come standard with OceanServer's VectorMap Mission Planning and Data Presentation tool, which provides geo-registered data files that can be easily exported to other software analysis tools. This unique AUV design has enabled OceanServer to carve out a very strong position in the research space for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles, sensors and behavioral studies. The VectorMap program can input NOAA ENCs or any geo-referenced charts, maps or photo images, allowing the operator to intuitively develop AUV missions using simple point-and-click navigation.
