Tragic Loss for International Hydrographic Community

On 31 August, the survey ship Level A collided with a Belgian-propelled barge on the Rhine at Basel, Switzerland, and capsized. The four crew members fell overboard. Although Professor Dr Volker Böder, director of the project and professor of geodesy and hydrography at the HafenCity University Hamburg (HCU), was rescued, he sadly died in hospital the following day as a result of his injuries. Despite a large-scale search operation, the skipper of the Level A has not yet been found. The two other crew members survived the accident.

The Hydrographic Academy, Distance Learning with Plymouth University

The Hydrographic Academy project is being led by Plymouth University, in collaboration with Fugro, a major service provider and employer in the hydrographic survey and engineering industry, and the Royal Navy. This project is employing some of the latest concepts and technology in distance and online learning to develop a suite of transferable learning materials that will meet the education needs of the hydrographic surveying industry. The materials developed will allow employees to undertake university level professional development despite long periods offshore and changing working patterns. The modular course will also provide school leavers with a much needed work-based learning route into the industry.....Click for more details

USGS Will Continue to Provide Film Camera Calibration Services

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) recognizes that the mapping and remote sensing service provided by the film camera continues to provide significant value to the government and industry. The USGS also understands the coincident value of continuing the film mapping camera calibration service that it has been providing at the USGS Optical Science Laboratory (OSL) for almost four decades. Based on the current, extensive feedback advocating that the OSL continue operation beyond 2012, the USGS has decided to pursue procurement options to buy additional glass calibration plates and extended the OSL calibration service capability beyond 2012.
