GEOxyz has completed the transit of its survey vessel Geo Ocean VII from the Port of Ostend, Belgium, to Walvis Bay, where the ship was welcomed by the Namibian Ports Authority (Namport). The arrival ...

Geoscience Australia collected new mapping data during a recent research voyage aboard CSIRO’s RV Investigator, helping Australia take another step towards understanding – and potentially unlockin...

The European Union has launched an international research project called SYNCHRONY to carry out coordinated observations, harmonize data and improve the understanding of and ability to predict climate...

In a new trial with the US Navy, Oshen put its 1m self-sailing 'C-Star' through two weeks of demanding sea conditions off Cat Island, Mississippi. The company's autonomous sailing vessels captured det...

Esri has released support for the International Hydrographic Organization's (IHO) S-100 standards in ArcGIS Pro, as hydrographic organizations worldwide work through the shift away from the legacy S-5...

The operational deployment of several COMET-MCM autonomous underwater vehicles, used to detect and identify naval mines, has been announced by RTsys Underwater Technologies, the Republic of Singapore ...

Perhaps surprisingly, the COVID-19 pandemic could be seen as the trigger for Fugro’s recent acquisition of EOMAP. To continue its major subsea telecom fibre-optic cable survey across the African con...

For generations, hydrographers explored the oceans with a lead-line and a chart that was mostly empty white space. Over the past hundred years, however, ocean mapping has leapt from hand-cast sounding...

Recent research demonstrates that multibeam echosounder (MBES) water column data deserves closer attention from the hydrographic community, particularly for the remote estimation of underwater gas emi...

Hydrography has long been defined by depth. From nautical charting to navigation safety, bathymetry remains the primary deliverable. But many blue economy activities – offshore wind, subsea cables, ...

In order to ensure safe navigation, Flemish Hydrography (FH) uses multibeam echosounders to precisely determine the depth and shape of shipwrecks. After a detailed survey and processing of the data, r...

Thanks to major advances in both the technological methods used and the richness of the datasets available on the condition of wind farms, it is becoming easier for developers and operators to look be...
