The IMOS Autonomous Underwater Vehicles Facility has an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) called Iver (IMOS platform code:IVER), capable of undertaking high resolution geo-referenced survey work. This platform is a modified Ocean Server Iver2 AUV that is hand deployable off RHIBs and other small vessels in addition to being deployable off larger vessels. This AUV has been modified for benthic imaging, including the addition of USBL and DVL for more accurate navigation and the addition of high resolution stereo cameras and strobes. The submersible is equipped with a suite of oceanographic sensors including high resolution stereo cameras (6MP each), depth sensor, Doppler Velocity Log (DVL), Compass and Ultra Short Baseline (USBL). The vehicle is controlled by an on-board PC stack which is used to log sensor information and run the vehicle's control algorithms. The vehicle has demonstrated its capacity to collect high resolution, near bottom imagery on trajectories over smooth terrain that has been used to generate 3D meshes and ortho-mosaics.
