OCEANOVA / ENVIRONMENTAL + HYDROGRAPHIC

MEASURE
THE OCEAN.

Autonomous hydrographic survey, environmental monitoring and oceanographic data collection for marine projects, research and coastal operations.

SURVEY MONITOR MAP UNDERSTAND
FROM WATER COLUMN TO SEAFLOOR

Observe.
Measure.
Understand.

Oceanova combines autonomous platforms, marine sensors, computer vision and hydrographic systems to collect repeatable ocean data.

Our focus is not just the sensor. We integrate the vehicle, positioning, communications, acquisition and final data workflow into a complete field system.

CORE CAPABILITIES

Ocean data
from the field.

01

Hydrographic
Survey

Autonomous bathymetric survey, multibeam integration, repeatable survey lines and georeferenced marine data.

02

Environmental
Monitoring

Repeatable marine observations using autonomous vehicles and modular environmental sensor payloads.

03

Subsea
Observation

Drop-camera, robotic and vision systems for seafloor, structure and habitat observation.

04

Coastal &
Flood Mapping

Spatial data acquisition for waterways, coastal environments, flood modelling and change detection.

05

Computer
Vision

Machine vision and automated detection for underwater monitoring and large image datasets.

06

Marine Data
Products

Georeferenced imagery, bathymetry, point clouds, survey data and mission-specific outputs.

HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY

Map what lies
beneath.

Autonomous platforms make it possible to collect dense, repeatable survey data while reducing vessel time and keeping people away from difficult environments.

01 Multibeam sonar integration
02 RTK positioning
03 Autonomous survey lines
04 Bathymetric data
05 3D point clouds

COASTAL / FLOOD / HYDROGRAPHY

Capture the
changing edge.

Survey systems can support coastal mapping, waterway assessment, flood modelling and repeat monitoring of dynamic environments.

Marine environmental monitoring
ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING

Repeatable data.
Over time.

Environmental monitoring becomes more useful when observations can be repeated consistently across the same sites and transects.

Autonomous platforms enable repeat missions while carrying configurable environmental and imaging payloads.

UNDERWATER COMPUTER VISION

Turn imagery
into data.

Machine vision can assist with reviewing large volumes of subsea imagery and identifying objects, organisms and features of interest.

SEAFLOOR OBSERVATION

Go deeper.

Camera and sensing systems can be deployed directly to the seabed for extended observation of environments beyond routine diver access.

SENSOR TO DELIVERABLE

The entire
data chain.

01

Position

GNSS, RTK and navigation provide the spatial reference.

02

Sense

Sonar, cameras and environmental sensors collect raw observations.

03

Acquire

Vehicle systems capture and synchronise mission data.

04

Process

Data is transformed into useful spatial and visual information.

05

Deliver

Mission outputs are prepared for analysis and decision making.

AUTONOMOUS DATA COLLECTION

Built around
the mission.

Oceanova develops its own autonomous vehicles so sensing systems, payloads and operations can be designed together.
