Demonstration of Crawler-Towed Sensor Technologies in Challenging Nearshore Sites

Abstract

Environmental remediation of UXO in nearshore environments is significantly complicated by the dynamics of the environment. The overarching goal of this demonstration project was to assess a combination of platform and sensing systems in order to deliver a UXO mapping survey and characterization technology in surf zones, salt marshes, shallow bays and tidal estuaries where robust mobility and stability of sensing platforms is needed in order to acquire high quality geophysical data.
