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

For more than fifty years, Kinemetrics has been at the forefront of seismic and structural monitoring. As the representatives for Australia and New Zealand, we are glad to make this trusted technology available to the people who rely on accurate information every day, whether they work in government, research, engineering, critical infrastructure, or energy. A Legacy of Innovation Since 1969, Kinemetrics has helped shape the way the world understands and measures earthquakes.

The Great Barrier Reef represents one of the most complex marine environments on the planet, yet much of its geomorphology lies concealed beneath the surface. Bathymetric grids provide the essential framework for studying this underwater landscape, integrating multibeam, single-beam, lidar, and satellite-derived data into coherent digital elevation models. Key datasets such as the GBR100 grid and the AusBathyTopo series, which offer seafloor detail at 100 m and 30 m resolutio

Australia’s deepest lake has finally been measured with scientific certainty. A dedicated CSIRO survey campaign has confirmed that Lake St Clair in Tasmania reaches a maximum depth of 163 metres. This makes it the deepest lake in Australia by a significant margin and deeper than Bass Strait, which reaches approximately 85 metres at its deepest point. The new depth was determined through a complete, high resolution underwater mapping project that used advanced multibeam echoso
