Climate change has increased the frequency and severity of extreme weather events such as hurricanes and winter storms. The complex interplay of floods with tides, runoff, and sediment creates additional hazards -- including erosion and the…
There is an increasing demand for piloted autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to operate in polar ice conditions. At present, AUVs are deployed from ships and directly human-piloted in these regions, entailing a high carbon cost and…
Autonomous coverage has tremendous importance for environmental surveying and exploration tasks performed on rivers both in terms of efficiency and data collection quality. Most surveys of rivers are performed manually using quite similar…
Autonomous surface vessels (ASV) represent a promising technology to automate water-quality monitoring of lakes. In this work, we use satellite images as a coarse map and plan sampling routes for the robot. However, inconsistency between…
This paper presents the portable autonomous probing system (APS), a low-cost robotic design for collecting water quality measurements at targeted depths from an autonomous surface vehicle (ASV). This system fills an important but often…
Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs) are increasingly utilised for diverse applications, ranging from environmental monitoring to security patrols. While USV technology is progressing, it remains clear that full autonomy is not achievable in…
Recently worldwide interest is growing toward commercial, military or scientific Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) and hence there is required to develop their guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) systems. Real USVs are a relatively new…
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) have become the de facto vehicle for remote operations involving oceanography, inspection, and monitoring tasks. These vehicles operate in different and often challenging environments; hence, the design…
Unmanned surface vessels USVs are typically autonomous or remotely operated and are specifically designed for environmental monitoring in various aquatic environments Aquaculture requires constant monitoring and management of water quality…
Deploying self-navigating surface vessels in inland waterways offers a sustainable alternative to reduce road traffic congestion and emissions. However, navigating confined waterways presents unique challenges, including narrow channels,…
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are becoming standard tools for underwater exploration and seabed mapping in both scientific and industrial applications \cite{graham2022rapid, stenius2022system}. Their capacity to dive untethered…
Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) have emerged as a promising solution to enhance navigational safety, operational efficiency, and long-term cost effectiveness. However, their reliable deployment requires rigorous verification and…
Micro Autonomous Surface Vehicles (MicroASVs) offer significant potential for operations in confined or shallow waters and swarm robotics applications. However, achieving precise and robust control at such small scales remains highly…
We introduce a multi-sensor navigation system for autonomous surface vessels (ASV) intended for water-quality monitoring in freshwater lakes. Our mission planner uses satellite imagery as a prior map, formulating offline a mission-level…
The exploration and sustainable use of marine environments have become increasingly critical as oceans cover over 70% of surface of Earth. This paper provides a comprehensive survey and classification of state-of-the-art underwater vehicles…
Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) are influenced by environmental disturbances such as wind and waves, making accurate trajectory tracking a persistent challenge in dynamic marine conditions. In this paper, we propose an efficient…
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are becoming increasingly important for different types of industrial applications. The generally high cost of (AUVs) restricts the access to them and therefore advances in research and technological…
Unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) and boats are increasingly important in maritime operations, yet their deployment is limited due to costly sensors and complexity. LiDAR, radar, and depth cameras are either costly, yield sparse point clouds…
To explore oceans on ice-covered moons in the solar system, energy-efficient Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) with long ranges must cover enough distance to record and collect enough data. These usually underactuated vehicles are hard…
Monitoring and patrolling large water resources is a major challenge for conservation. The problem of acquiring data of an underlying environment that usually changes within time involves a proper formulation of the information. The use of…
