We are thrilled to announce that MindChip has been awarded a contract by the European Space Agency (ESA)! Our mission is to modernize the automated surveying of maritime areas. For instance, in Estonia, 30% of maritime areas lack up-to-date data, compromising safety and seabed knowledge.

By leveraging Satellite-Derived Bathymetry (SDB) in conjunction with our autonomous robotic vessel, we will efficiently validate and extend SDB data, enabling precise and rapid coverage of vast areas. Supported by research from Estonian Maritime Academy at the University of Tartu, this initiative specifically targets the high demand for accurate surveys, particularly in rocky and shallow coastal regions.

Additionally, we are developing a web platform to facilitate self-service measurement orders. Stay tuned as we continue to innovate and transform maritime surveying!
