ROV Survey of the Costa Concordia Grounding Site (video)08/02/2012 |
| Soon after the major disaster of the Costa Concordia cruise ship, which was grounded near the coast of Giglio Island, Italy, the Firemen Divers Department began searching the area around the ship's hull for passengers who might have drowned. There also were concerns that the ship might slip from her position along the coastal slope to a depth of about 70 metres, which would have seriously compromised further rescue operations. These tasks have been surveyed using an Ageotec Perseo ROV equipped with two cameras and a 5-function manipulator, which enabled more than 10,000 square metres of sea bottom to be surveyed as well as objects and samples to be collected. |

It's not an AUV but a UAV. So an unmanned vehicle, but in the air instead of underwater. This movie shows a demonstration of the bathymetric laser scanning capabilities of the RIEGL VQ-820-GU hydrographic airborne sensor in reality. For more information on the technical side, please see the news release on Hydro International.
