SUMMARY:Ocean Connector: Exploring the Future of Distributed Sonar Operations
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally\, analyzing sonar data for underwater detection has required dedicated operators at sea onboard the platform. Distributed sonar operations are changing this by enabling remote analysis from almost anywhere in the world—opening up new possibilities for flexibility and efficiency in maritime operations. \nJoin us in welcoming Mark Thibodeau\, Director of Sonar Systems at General Dynamics Mission Systems–Canada\, for an engaging session on the innovative technology behind this shift. Mark will explore how edge processing\, open architecture networks\, and collaboration between crewed and uncrewed systems are transforming underwater detection and tracking capabilities. \nThis session offers a fascinating look at how technology is reshaping maritime operations and the opportunities it creates for the future. \nSpecial thanks to our founding partner\, Irving Shipbuilding Inc.\, for their continued support of the Ocean Connector series. \n\n\n\nLearn more about General Dynamics Mission Systems–Canada: \n\nLinkedIn: General Dynamics Mission Systems–Canada\nX: @GDMS_C\nFacebook: General Dynamics Mission Systems–Canada

SUMMARY:Ocean Connector: Autonomous Systems for Ocean Monitoring
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our Ocean Connector and dive into the world of autonomous systems for monitoring our ocean with Dr. Clark Richards.\n\n\nOceanography is rooted in the need for in situ observations. Remote sensing techniques\, while powerful and transformative in many ways\, are unable to provide accurate data from the interior of the ocean\, which is needed for long-term monitoring\, ocean state estimates\, and understanding the impacts of climate change. \nWhile ships have long been the go-to for collecting data\, recent technological advances have produced an explosion of platforms and systems that can provide data\, often in near real-time\, beneath the surface. \nDr. Clark Richards\, a Research Scientist with Fisheries and Oceans Canada\, Bedford Institute of Oceanography\, will outline some of the systems and tools used by Fisheries and Oceans Canada to monitor the ocean\, such as floats\, gliders\, and observatories and present some scientific results that have been applied locally and globally.

SUMMARY:Ocean Connector: The future of international autonomous system innovation
DESCRIPTION:Join us at COVE for a one-of-a-kind event that brings together experts\, innovators\, and thought leaders in the marine technology sector. This in-person gathering will dive deep into the future of regulatory review and how it intersects with the exciting advancements in autonomous system innovation. \nAutonomous systems will be necessary for the ongoing maintenance of offshore industries such as wind farms as they mitigate risk to humans from the somewhat exciting but dangerous environment offshore. Autonomous systems have the potential to improve the availability of information from offshore assets significantly\, but they need to be trusted to do the job safely. This means showing that they are safe and reliable. Otherwise\, there is more downside than upside to their use. \nThe regulatory space is focused on safety\, and the still developing technologies must inform this. If regulation is pre-emptive\, then it may stifle innovation. The sea surface domain is regulated mainly under international agreements focused on the International Maritime Organisation\, with national bodies then drafting their interpretations as needed. \nNick Tudor\, CEO at D-RisQ Ltd.\, leads this presentation on the current status of autonomous systems and a potential way ahead for international certification. \nAbout Nick: Following a full career as a Royal Air Force Officer Engineer\, Nick has been working in software and high integrity systems for the past two decades. As Co-Founder of D-RisQ\, he has worked in multiple sectors including aerospace\, defence\, automotive\, rail\, autonomous systems in air\, land\, sea\, nuclear decommissioning and cyber-security. D-RisQ was also one of the companies that participated in COVE’s Ocean Scale-Up Accelerator Program in partnership with Innovate UK. Furthermore\, Nick is one of only three UK nationals on the invite only panel that develops advice for DO-178C\, the de-facto software standard for aerospace\, and conducts audit and training in DO-178C on behalf of various clients. He also participates in several standards bodies and is the Design Authority Chair for a Scottish autonomous systems project which is setting benchmarks for the design\, development and use of standardized autonomous systems in the offshore sector.
