Underwater imaging has become a staple tool used by scientists exploring the deep ocean. Advanced camera systems are able to combine quantitative measurements from in-situ sensors with qualitative imaging to provide high fidelity multi-dimensional datasets which can be used to support a wide range of science questions. This includes benthic characterization and mapping, identification of biota and...
Towed underwater imaging systems are increasingly used for a wide variety of science applications in the deep ocean. These systems augment data collected by physical sampling such as dredging and trawling, but also provide an important sampling alternative where extractive methods are unnecessary or unsuitable — such as in sensitive habitats or for repeated sampling in marine reserves. Specific applications...
A review of current handling system specifications was conducted to determine an appropriate handling system and tow cable design specification for a high speed, littoral towed system. During that review it was determined that existing specifications are not suited to govern the design of handling systems used in this application. Due to the extreme load cases as well as the likelihood of a tow cable...
