Abstract:
Method and system for high-accurate position determination of control devices arranged in connection with instrumented cables towed behind a survey vessel by at least one autonomous surface vessel provided with acoustic communication means, where the control devices are provided with acoustic elements, and where the acoustic communication means and acoustic elements are used for accurate positioning of the surface vessel above the control device.
