The objective of the ship-based training programme is to provide essential offshore elements in seabed mapping and provide practical, hands-on training to postgraduate students. The training will be delivered by experienced INFOMAR personnel from the INFOMAR programme at the Geological Survey Ireland and the Marine Institute who have extensive seagoing experience.
Training will focus on:
- Multibeam echosounder applications for bathymetry and water column properties
- Sub-bottom data acquisition and applications
- Oceanographic measurements
- GIS applications for seabed mapping
- Research Vessel Systems and navigation
- Remotely operated video (ROV) ground-truthing including equipment (video, lighting, usbl)
- Seabed sampling and types of equipment
- Survey planning (with an opportunity for students to conduct their own survey)
Please note the trip will take place 17-18 November 2022.
