DATAMARAN - LEADING A REVOLUTION IN OCEAN SURVEYING
metocean surveys
Measure air, water, wave energy in high resolution, spanning vast areas
Transmit information in real time
Enable better weather forecasts, inform climate change research, mitigate risk to people and assets
Continuously, affordably
marine mammal monitoring
Host advanced passive acoustic monitoring systems
Detect, identify, issue alerts for endangered species
North Atlantic Right Whales
Deploy episodically or study long term trends in species health
Multiple vessels mimic arrays - determine range and bearing of individual animals
unobtrusively, real time
hydrography
Map the sea-bed, determine its composition, look below the bottom
Discover cultural artifacts, monitor sea-bed sand waves
Inspect submarine pipes and cables
Survey continuously in ‘background’
efficiently, leaving no ‘imprints’
seismology and geodesy
Poll remote motion detectors on sea-bed
Communicate measurements in real-time to shore based experts
Enhance knowledge of fault movements and improve predictions of earthquakes, tsunamis
Prevent devastation wrought by natural, earth shaking events
Protect vulnerable coastal populations
coastal security
Sense, look, listen - friend or foe?
100X ‘eyes and ears’ at sea
Sensor fusion delivers confidence in results
Issue alerts to agencies - enhance national security
Invisibly, discreetly
subsea telemetry
Establish communication with sub-sea devices in water column or on sea-bed
Eliminate need to deploy expensive, manned ships
Enable continuous, real-time, information from remote sensors to shore
