Z-Boat autonomy

The Oceanscience Z-Boat 1800 remotely-operated hydrographic survey boat has just completed final trials with an on-board autonomous waypoint navigation system, and is now ready to get surveying. The latest GNSS controlled, IMU aided robo Z-Boat option is a result of a partnership between The Oceanscience Group (USA), MSubs (UK) and Swathe Services (UK) and adds autonomy for the 1.8 m (6 ft) portable hydrographic survey system.
