Conference on High Resolution Surveys in Shallow Water is Accepting Abstracts

The 8th International Conference on High Resolution Surveys in Shallow Water is now accepting proposals for presentations for its conference. The event will be held October 1 to 3 in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, at the Delta Hotel.

The Fisheries and Marine Institute of Memorial University of Newfoundland and the Canadian Hydrographic Service would like to showcase emerging technologies that address current and future hydrographic requirements and promote progress being made in seabed mapping in the coastal environment. Topics may also include various approaches to shallow water hydrography such as multi-beam, swath, LiDar, AUV’s ASV’s, UAV’s and advanced data processing, fusion and visualization techniques.

All conference abstract submissions must be made by e-mail to Kirk Regular or Paul Brett at Shallowsurvey@mi.mun.ca by May 15. Notification of decisions on submitted abstracts will be issued on June 15.
