Fugro, a leading geotechnical and survey company, has partnered with NOAA Ocean Exploration to establish a five-year Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA). This collaboration aims to design and implement remote and uncrewed technologies that will enhance deep-ocean mapping and characterization. Announced recently, this public-private partnership seeks to address significant data deficiencies in the deep ocean, one of the planet's least explored regions. By improving access to vital information, the initiative is expected to facilitate informed decision-making regarding offshore energy development, marine resource management, and national security. The deployment of these advanced technologies is anticipated to play a crucial role in advancing our understanding of the deep sea and its resources.
