ION Geophysical has unveiled its 4Sea system, designed to make seabed data acquisition safer and more efficient. The system is a suite of software tools that will allow scientists to collect real-time information about the ocean floor in real time from autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs).
ION Geophysical has unveiled its 4Sea system, designed to make seabed data acquisition safer and more efficient. The system uses next-generation ocean bottom imaging technology to optimise the survey process from the initial planning stage to final processing, and uses new sensors to produce higher resolution images than existing systems.
