The paper describes the sixth edition of Rapid Environmental Picture Atlantic exercise (REPIS-Atlantic) which took place in July 2015 off the Portuguese islands of Azores to demonstrate coordinated operations of unmanned underwater, surface, and air vehicles contributed by participants coming from Europe and the United States of America. REP-Atlantic is a yearly demonstration exercise targeted at...
Obtaining synoptic observations of dynamic ocean phenomena such as fronts, eddies, oxygen minimum zones and blooms has been challenging primarily due to the large spatial scales involved. Traditional methods of observation with manned ships are expensive and, unless the vessel can survey at high-speed, unrealistic. Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are robotic platforms that have been making steady...
This paper describes the open-source software toolchain developed by the Underwater Systems and Technology Laboratory (LSTS) for supporting networked heterogeneous air and ocean vehicle systems. The toolchain supports the deployment of air and ocean vehicles interacting over limited acoustic and wireless networks combined with disruption-tolerant networking protocols. We present the different components...
Operation of networks of heterogeneous vehicles and sensors imposes many technical and operational challenges. Simultaneous control of multiple vehicle types requires abstraction any device-specific details and to keep human operators in the loop by providing them a good overall picture of the current system state. In this paper, we present the Neptus command and control infrastructure for such operations,...
