A method for controlling an underwater vehicle moving along a travel trajectory is disclosed. The movement of the underwater vehicle is dependent on a vessel physically connected thereto. The method is performed by a processor and comprises the steps of: obtaining a topography of an underwater region where the underwater vehicle travels; obtaining a predicted trajectory of the underwater vehicle; deriving a relationship between the predicted trajectory of the underwater vehicle and a seafloor represented by the topography of the underwater region; and controlling the underwater vehicle based on the determined relationship; wherein the topography of the underwater region is linkable to a coordinate system of the travel trajectory of the underwater vehicle. Unlocking insights from Geo-Data, the present invention further relates to improvements in sustainability and environmental developments: together we create a safe and liveable world.
