Much remains unknown about the benthic ecosystem that the blue economy depends on, and improved benthic habitat mapping is key to the sustainable development of the blue economy. While remote...

Surprisingly little is known about the underwater surface of our planet. In fact, with the Seabed 2030 project so far not even at 25%, the surfaces of Mars and Venus are better mapped than the Earth’s seafloor. At Hydro International, we're dedicated to staying ahead of the curve in the ever-changing world of hydrography. That's why we're thrilled to unveil our new look, complete with an updated...

The state of the art in autonomous surface vehicles has evolved tremendously, and these technologies will revolutionize the field of hydrography. However, our experience shows that developing these systems to...

SEA-KIT International has announced its first uncrewed surface vessel (USV) export sale to ThayerMahan, a leading provider of autonomous maritime solutions based in Connecticut, USA. The X-Class USV’s combination of...

As sea levels continue to rise and storms intensify, countries such as the Netherlands – where a third of land is below sea level – are becoming increasingly concerned about...

The ‘Umi-no-Chizu’ (‘Map of the Sea’) project will use aerial measurement to map 90% of Japan’s shallow coastal waters (to a depth of 20m). This is a joint project by...

Measuring suspended particulate matter in the water column is still a big challenge when it comes to covering large areas in the sea or rivers. A novel method to monitor particles...

SEA-KIT International has secured funding through Round 2 of the Clean Maritime Demonstration Competition (CMDC) to design a hydrogen powered, zero emission uncrewed surface vessel (USV). SEA-KIT, a leading designer...

The mysterious Black Sea has many secrets yet to be discovered. This research presents the results of the biggest UXO survey project performed on the Romanian Black Sea coast after...

Electrification and the transition to a green economy are rapidly accelerating the demand for metals and rare earth minerals. As this demand cannot be met by recycling existing metals, a...
