Our mission to recover the missing 12-year-old girl came to a successful resolution today. Thanks to all the agencies - public & private who came together to support SDFD. #RIP #publicservice #teamwork

#UPDATE Day 2 of the search and recovery efforts have ceased due to limited light. Crews will be back at 5am Monday to search more of #SanVicenteReservoir. @OrcaMaritime will be utilizing robotic tools to aid the @SDLifeguards search efforts. #NBC7 nbcsandiego.com/news/local/Sea…

This is the autonomous underwater veh (AUV) that Orca Maritime is using for mapping the search area. SDG&E’s contractor from WH Pacific is using a UAV which has a radio metric camera. #gratitude #technology

Built a larger version of our recovery system to pull heavy objects that are out of diver depth using our SeaBotix vLBV. 4 recoveries in the first round with the line going from the surface, clipped and up to the recovery boat in about 20 minutes each

Spent a week with @TeledyneMarine training on the Gavia #AUV, collecting bathymetry and side scan of ship and plane wrecks around San Diego

Trained #NASA last week on their Iver3. The #AUV will be used to test autonomy developed at #JPL that may one day find its way to Europa.

This is why we always bring our #ROV on #AUV jobs. Pulling our #Iver3 out of the kelp off San Clemente Island using our #SeaBotix #vLBV300
