Vision

We will assure the Navy’s oceanographic knowledge superiority and reduce risk by providing the forecast battlespace through:

Smart Collection(Focused on ASW, MIW, NSW & EXW needs)

Responsive Delivery(Decreased turnaround time)

Focused Analysis(Direct Support)

Shorter laser pulse length and receiver response for increased accuracy, especially in shallow (<2m) water.Large field-of-view afforded by prism, and more sensitive receivers, increase signal-to-noise ratio.Improved depth detection in shallow turbid water.
