Guest: Corrina Liu, Data Surpass Technology Co., Ltd, Taiwan

In this fall series of podcasts, we introduce some of the winners and general entrants from the 2020 Teledyne Marine Photo Contest. Teledyne’s annual Photo/ Data Contest concluded with over 80 qualified submissions that helped the company donate over $1200 to Save the Children as part of a charitable giving campaign.

In this episode, Corrina Liu from Data Surpass Technology Co in Taiwan, tells us about the survey of a weather observation tower in Taiwan that won her the Best Data award from our 2020 Photo Contest. The image was created with data from a Teledyne RESON 7125 Seabat sonar and PDS2000 processing software.

Deep Tow Project Part III – Installation at Odyssey Marine Exploration

Teledyne Benthos and Teledyne RESON are developing a new deep tow vehicle for Odyssey Marine Exploration. The vehicle is equipped with a SeaBat 7125 Multibeam Dual Head Sonar and will be used to find shipwrecks on the seabed in very deep waters. The vehicle will be about four meters long and will be towed with a 10 kilometer cable from a surface vessel.

We have followed the development process and in this third part Ernie Tapanes - Senior Project Manager from Odyssey Marine Exploration gives a brief on Installation at Odyssey Marine Exploration. Subscribe to our newsletter "A Sharper View" to get part III directly in your mail box.

The grain LNG Terminal surveyed

Tue, 25 Mar 2014 15:57:30 GMT

In 2010, the PLA were commissioned by the National Grid to survey the riverbed surrounding Jettiew 8 & 10 at the Grain LNG Terminal.

The data was collected by the combined vessel-mounted laser & SeaBat 7125 Multibeam sonar arrays.

We thank Port of London & the National Grid for letting us show you this video.

Video paper: Pipeline surveying from a surface vessel in the Caspian sea

Mon, 25 Nov 2013 12:49:39 GMT

Surface Vessel Based Multibeam Pipeline Inspection

In a special collaboration between BP, Fugro Caspian and Teledyne RESON an unconventional approach was used to survey pipelines in the Caspian Sea. A vessel was outfitted with two pole mounts each equipped with a SeaBat 7125 SV2 using FP3. Teledyne PDS software was used to automatically detect and track the pipes in real time. A total of 710 km pipe was surveyed in just seven days. This presentation outlines the advanced technologies that were involved to collect such high resolution pipeline data.

Surveying in the most remote place in the world, Antarctica

Fri, 01 Nov 2013 14:41:45 GMT

Navigation data is poorly available in Antarctica. If navigational data is available it often dates back to the early 1900s with many lead line surveys. An initiative was undertaken by Stephen Wilkins of Xplore Expeditions to collect bathymetry with a multibeam SeaBat 7125-SV2 survey system making use of the sailing vessel Xplore. Together with Yoann Boulaire from SHOM, France and Fernando Landeta, hydrographic technician from Skyring Marine Chile, an IHO qualified survey was performed in Antarctica on an expedition sailing yacht.

See a presentation of the project recorded in September at the Teledyne RESON Underwater Technology Seminar in Copenhagen.

Suspended sediment over Mississippi sand-dune

Thu, 01 Aug 2013 09:55:30 GMT

Whats seen:
Large plumes of suspended sediment entrained from the bed by turbulence advecting with flow over the lee-side of an alluvial sand-dune. Data were collected from a boat moored at a point at a 10Hz ping repetition frequency, at 400kHz and with the swath parallel with streamwise flow.

About the Data survey:
Pioneering work carried out by Dr Steve Simmons (Hull), Prof Dan Parsons (Hull) & Prof Jim Best (Illinois) using multibeam backscatter data to measure suspended sediment concentrations and flow velocities across a two-dimensional area in the field for the first time.

Where:
Confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi near St Louis, USA.

SS Leslie aka The Carol Lee Wreck

Wed, 13 Mar 2013 07:36:52 GMT

SS Leslie The SS Leslie was built in 1919 in Duluth, Michigan, as the Lake Flagstaff. She later sailed under the names Stella Lykes and Josephine, before being renamed Leslie. She was 251 feet long, had a 44 foot beam and displaced 2,609 gross tons. The Leslie was owned by Worth Steamship Company of New York and was under the command of Captain Albert Ericksson. On April 12, 1942, she was torpedoed by the German submarine U-123. At the time she was en route from Antilla, Cuba, to New York with a cargo of 3,300 tons of sugar. Out of a complement of 31 crew and one passenger, four of her crew were lost.Today the Leslie wreck sits in 80 feet of water, 21 miles off Port Canaveral.

The wreck was surveyed in two passes and processed with PDS2000 grid model editor. It was surveyed with Land and Sea's research vessel " The Beast" a 40 foot Sea Ark. We used a Knogsberg MRU 5 motion sensor,an ADU5 Magellan heading device and a magellan RTK sub centimeter GPS system.

The Dutch Wreck

Mon, 11 Mar 2013 09:31:45 GMT

"Dutch Wreck" -- Steamship Laertes The Dutch steamship Laertes was built in 1919 by Taikoo Dockyard & Engineering Company, Hong Kong. Owned by Nederland Stoomy, she was 423.9 feet long, had a 52.3 foot beam, displaced 5,825 tons and was pushed by a single screw triple expansion engine. The Laertes was powered by a 413 nhp triple expansion engine and had a top speed of 13.5 knots.On May 3, 1942, the Laertes was torpedoed and sunk by a German submarine. Some say it was the work of the U-564, while others claim it was the U-109. At the time she was on a voyage from New York to Bombay, with a 5,230 ton cargo of war supplies, including three aircraft, 17 tanks and 20 trucks. A total of 18 of her crew went down with her.

Today the Laerte's scattered wreckage sits in 72 feet of water eleven miles off Port Canaveral. This wreck is also locally known as the Dutch WreckThe data was processedusing the grid model editor in Teledyne PDS
