More insight from every deployment

Precise underwater navigation

PlanBlue Payload

Our platform-agnostic payload integrates with AUVs, ROVs, USVs, towed systems, and diver-operated platforms, transforming them into more capable seabed monitoring solutions, without requiring changes to established operational workflows. By augmenting proven platforms with advanced optical sensing, operators see more, capture richer data, and can extract greater value from each deployment.
The payload contains an Underwater Hyperspectral Imaging (UHI) sensor, high-resolution RGB camera, environmental sensors, lights, a computing unit, and motion and navigation systems. This modular configuration delivers precise, geo-referenced datasets while maintaining compatibility with standard vehicle interfaces, mission planning tools, and deployment procedures.

Our technology, your benefits.

Fast Time-to-data

Through automation, we reduce analysis time from months or days to just hours, enabling rapid decision-making (and fast intervention).

High Quality Image Recording & Processing

We have overcome numerous technical challenges to deliver crystal-clear results – including water-column correction, which reduces effects such as turbidity that can make images appear milky.

Geo-Referenced Data for Precise Time-Series

Our underwater navigation sensors enable precise site revisits, enhancing project credibility and transparency. We generate time series visualizations to clearly demonstrate the progress and impact of initiatives or construction sites over time.

One Dataset, 
Endless Insights

Our system captures full spectral and spatial data – no sub-sampling needed. This allows re-analysis anytime, without returning to the field.

Objective Results

Our AI-driven annotation libraries accurately identify seafloor properties, minimizing the need for human intervention both in-field and during analysis, ensuring consistent and objective data.

Multi-level quality control

Our FieldGuide app ensures robust quality control in the field, through map views, video playback, and live GPS tracking – helping prevent redundancy and streamline workflows. Automatic backups and incremental data imports keep operations efficient and secure.
