In underwater archaeology, the constraint is rarely detection. It is interpretation. Most sites of interest can be located with relative ease using conventional side scan sonar. The difficulty begins once a target is identified. At that point, the question is no longer where is it, but rather: What exactly is it? What is its geometry? Does it warrant further intervention? These questions are not trivial. They directly influence whether a site progresses to ROV inspection, div

As survey demands increase and vessel time becomes more expensive, efficiency is critical. Moving Vessel Profilers (MVPs) are quickly becoming a standard tool onboard survey vessels for exactly this reason. At Seismic Asia Pacific, as representatives of AML Oceanographic, we’re seeing growing adoption of MVP systems across hydrographic, offshore, dredging, and research applications. What is an MVP? A Moving Vessel Profiler collects water column data continuously while the ves

Underwater imaging sits at the centre of modern subsea work. It supports inspection, environmental monitoring, research, and intervention tasks across offshore energy, infrastructure, and scientific projects. In many cases, the quality of visual data directly affects decision-making. Engineers rely on it to assess condition. Scientists use it to document change. Operators depend on it for situational awareness during complex work. Despite major advances in vehicles and sensor

Parametric insurance has emerged as one of the most significant developments in risk transfer over the past decade. Unlike traditional insurance, which pays out based on assessed loss after an event, parametric insurance triggers a payout automatically when a measurable threshold is reached. This might be wind speed during a cyclone, rainfall totals during a flood, or ground motion during an earthquake. The appeal is obvious. Parametric policies offer speed, transparency, and

Anything 3D we love, especially when you combine above-water LiDAR and below-water Bathymetry into one seamless 3D model. This capability is changing how marine infrastructure projects are surveyed, visualised, and delivered. Tailored Spatial Solutions recently delivered a combined Bathymetric and LiDAR 3D survey of the new barge ramp in Cairns for Brady Marine, with the goal of confirming dredging volumes and assessing design conformance across the site. By integrating dron
