Panel 1: Ocean Data Acquisition

EXPO STAGE 1, Hall 5 (F5.009)

Wednesday, 25.09.2024 / 14:30 – 15:30 / German

The complexities of collecting geospatial data from the ocean demand specialised expertise and tools. In the panel "Ocean Data Acquisition", Wendt, alongside fellow experts, will dive into the cross-sectoral approaches needed to overcome the hurdles of limited accessibility, dynamic marine conditions, and the vast scale of the ocean environment. This discussion will focus on the innovations in equipment, planning, and coordination that enable precise data gathering, shedding light on how these advancements support efficient operations across governmental and commercial ventures.

Panel 2: Ocean Data Management – The Role of Geospatial Data Hubs in Protecting Critical Underwater Infrastructure

EXPO STAGE 1, Hall 5 (F5.009)

Wednesday, 25.09.2024 / 15:30 – 16:30 / German

As the volume of oceanic data grows exponentially, the absence of standardised formats for bathymetric and submarine data continues to impede post-processing and real-time situational awareness, particularly in security-sensitive marine areas. In "Ocean Data Management", Wendt will explore how geospatial data hubs, such as TrueOcean, are helping to streamline ocean data management, ensuring seamless integration and analysis. This discussion, featuring insights from government, industry, and academia, will include case studies like those from the Navy, showcasing the real-world impact of these technologies in protecting critical underwater infrastructure.

Panel 3: Ocean Data Processing – GPU-Accelerated Geospatial Data Processing

EXPO STAGE 1, Hall 5 (F5.009)

Wednesday, 25.09.2024 / 16:30 – 17:30 / German

As the Blue Economy continues to grow at a rapid pace, driven by offshore wind energy, aquaculture, and marine infrastructure, the need for fast and scalable data processing is paramount. In the panel "Ocean Data Processing", Wendt will discuss how AI and GPU-accelerated technologies are poised to revolutionise oceanographic research. With the ocean now serving as a data-rich frontier, this discussion will highlight the significant strides made in processing large datasets—crucial for both innovation and sustainability in marine research and offshore industries.
