The Center for Robot-Assisted Search and Rescue has fielded two AEOS man-portable unmanned surface, a YSI Ecomapper and VideoRay underwater marine vehicle in the aftermath of Hurricanes Wilma (2005, Florida) and Ike (2008, Texas) for littoral structural inspection. By providing above and below waterline inspection of roads, bridges, seawalls, robots could cut the time involved in determining how to...
Rivers, estuaries, reservoirs, and lakes are multi-use systems that supply water for agricultural, industrial, and human consumption while simultaneously assimilating both point- and non-point source discharges. Existing methods of data collection are generally limited to snapshots in space and time while a comprehensive view of spatial variability remains elusive. Accelerating the integration of...
Tidal rivers and accompanying coastal environments represent critical links between the open estuary and the local tributary and watershed. In Florida, these coastal ecosystems are multi-use systems. They are often a primary source of water for agricultural, industrial, and human consumption all while functioning as commercial and recreational shipping thoroughfares and receiving storm water runoff...
The monitoring of coastal and estuarine waters is hampered by the spatial and temporal restrictions inherent in gathering discrete samples and transporting them to a laboratory for testing. The development of in situ instrumentation now makes possible the collection of real-time data, and with the incorporation of remotely operated vehicles a much greater data density on both a temporal and spatial...
