https://vimeo.com/12099718 The son of an Aqua Survey team member interviews our own adventurer Eric Smith, currently diving for artefacts in the lost city of Heracleion in Egypt.  Located at the mouth of the Nile River, it was a major port city before being submerged by earthquakes and rising sea levels. The city is known for its well-preserved artifacts, including statues, jewelry, and architectural elements.   Watch “ASI Webcast from Egypt”

https://vimeo.com/66179387 The Aqua Survey EM team hits the road (and water) of Laos once again. This time they’re on their way to a gold mine. With so much earth being constantly moved, the mine has uncovered more than a few bombs in their mining process. It’s hoped our equipment and techniques can help locate bombs hidden within the mine to make the operation safer.  Watch “Laos Episode 3: Bomb Disposal”

https://vimeo.com/65240113 The Aqua Survey EM team has reached the first test site and now the real challenge begins. Some unexploded ordnance folks say this is one of the toughest places in the world to work. Can our electromagnetic (EM) metal detection equipment help the people of Laos overcome their bomb problem?  Watch “Laos Episode 2: Roadside Explosives” Continue the journey with Laos Episode 3

https://vimeo.com/62810873 The Aqua Survey team returned from a nearly month long expedition in the small Southeast Asian country of Laos. Their mission was to prove the capabilities of ASI’s bomb hunting equipment in the harshest conditions available, the highly conductive soil of Laos.  Watch “Laos Episode 1” Continue the journey with Laos Episode 2

https://vimeo.com/68724912 On a recent layover in Thailand to continue our work with UXO (unexploded ordnance) in Laos, a few of us at ASI seized the opportunity to venture outside of Bangkok for a day. What we found was the Damnoenssaduak floating market. Consisting of an intricate network of canals, it’s an active medley of commerce where everything from exotic fruits to touristy kitsch are hawked daily.  Watch “Thailand Floating Market” Learn more about the beginnings of Aqua Survey’s involvement in

https://vimeo.com/40314091 A documentary filmmaker reached out to Aqua Survey after extensive research of police files of the 1974 homicide case which inspired the Amityville Horror franchise.  This new series would examine some never fully answered questions in the murder investigation. Aqua Survey towed an EM (electromagnetic) array behind one of our vessels, resulting in 317 metal objects located and mapped to within inches of accuracy. Aqua Survey’s geophysicists used this data to generate a small list of high-priority targets. An

https://vimeo.com/234551097 Sometimes you meet incredible people. Pong, Pongsavath or Peter Kim as he sometimes likes to be called is one. Losing both hands and his eyesight to a Vietnam War Era cluster bomb when he was 16, Pong has persevered where many would have given up. Children in Laos continue to be injured or killed by unsuspected, decades old bomblets that litter their soil, schoolyards, and playgrounds. Survivors like Pongsavath often lose limbs and sight, a human toll that echoes

The site for the new school was surveyed and cleared of metal objects with Aqua Survey’s EM metal detection capabilities.  Watch “The Jason School Opening”  Learn more about the beginnings of Aqua Survey’s involvement in Laos.

https://vimeo.com/221489389 Aqua Survey deploys the Ultra Marine Magnetometer Array (UMMA) when clients need to locate metal objects in ecologically sensitive environments or cover large areas rapidly. Piloted by our team of scientists at a carefully controlled altitude above the seafloor, UMMA sweeps former military bombing ranges, harbors, and submerged archaeological sites with unmatched speed and sensitivity. The result is a detailed map of ferrous targets—delivered quickly, accurately, and with zero impact on flora and fauna.  Watch “Ultra Marine Magnetometer Array”

https://vimeo.com/215880233 When survey crews face tangled wrecks, submerged debris fields, or coral gardens that demand the utmost care, Aqua Survey’s ROV solution steps in with agility and finesse. These compact, remotely operated platforms slip through narrow channels and hover above sensitive habitats—ensuring zero contact with sea life while mapping every nook and cranny. Equipped with an advanced electro-magnetic coil, the EM-ROV pinpoints both ferrous and non-ferrous metals without disturbing the seabed. The result? Reliable target identification in even the most

https://vimeo.com/23368873 Discover how Aqua Survey turns uncertainty into actionable insight when tackling underwater unexploded ordnance (UXO), munitions and explosives of concern (MEC), and marine clearance (MC). Aqua Survey’s UXO/MEC/MC capabilities include specialty vessels, geophysical survey and remote sensing instruments and precision positioning  systems.  Using proprietary sediment sampling we can safely collect sediment cores in areas known to have or suspected of having UXO or MEC present. Our certified sediment toxicology laboratory can expertly test sediment samples for toxicity derived from
