Facility type: MOLAB
Access provider: Coastal & Marine Research Lab, IACM, FORTH
Title: Coastal & Underwater Survey
Description
Includes all portable marine survey methods and equipment (e.g. Drones, ROV, wave & tide sensors, side scan sonars, diving equipment). Activities of the Lab aim to provide a detailed description of the surrounding environment in which the cultural heritage site is located. Moreover to identify the specific characteristics of the site in terms of geometry and building materials. The equipment of the Lab and also be used for the survey and identification of possible new sites and also monitoring of sites.
