Autonomous underwater vehicle maps seafloor [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1997
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs)—which operate without a tether or human supervision—represent an emerging technology that can be used to solve many scientific problems in the deep ocean, the last unexplored frontier on Earth. AUVs are well suited to “lawn‐mower” style geophysical surveys for mapping bathymetry, magnetic field, or water column ...
