New to the demo programme for 2015 will be companies such as biodiversity information specialist, Proteus, ROV video systems expert, Outland Technology and ultra-high resolution sonar technology expert, Kraken Sonar, to name a few.
Companies such as Topcon will be demonstrating clever new aerial technologies for coastal mapping and RIEGL will be demonstrating airborne laser scanning systems for topo-hydrographic surveying.
An autonomous survey boat will be unveiled by Oceanscience during a multibeam echosounder demo and other high-tech information companies, including OceanWise, will be discussing options for sharing and publishing environmental data for tidal monitoring systems.
Altogether, there will be over 180 hours of free demos at next year’s exhibition.
The Ocean Business 2015 exhibition and demonstrations are free to attend by registering online, but there is a fee for the conference.
