This project addresses the conceptual design of new technology for conducting topographic surveys in the coastal zone. Work included (1) a literature search for existing technology, (2) conducting a workshop attended by experts in surf zone surveying and potential users of the system, (3) extensive telephone and written contact with experts in the fields of coastal engineering, surveying, all-terrain vehicles, power systems, ocean systems design, guidance of marine vehicles, and robotics, (4) development of a set of design and operation requirements the new surveying technology, (5) development of the conceptual design for the ROV system, (6) a literature search of model studies and methods for predicting loads induced by breaking waves, (7) preliminary design calculations for power requirements and vehicle stability, and (8) a preliminary cost estimate.
