Autonomous Underwater Vehicle - Part 2

Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) have a wide range of applications in marine geoscience and are increasingly being used in the scientific, military, commercial, and policy sectors. Their ability to operate autonomously of a host vessel makes them well suited to the exploration of extreme environments, from the World's deepest hydrothermal vents to beneath polar ice sheets. They have revolutionized our ability to image the seafloor, providing higher resolution seafloor mapping data than can be achieved from surface vessels, particularly in deep water.
