Increasing the Efficiency of Sea-floor Data AcquisitionĪnthony DiMare, CEO and co-founder, and former SpaceX and Submarine engineer Charles Chiau, CTO and co-founder, started Bedrock to accelerate the rate and scale with which humans can map, understand and use the ocean, which are ultimately needed for rapid implementation of green and marine technology such as offshore wind energy to fight climate change and drive planet-saving innovation for generations to come. Initiatives range from imposing carbon taxes and emissions limits to ambitious green energy transition plans like President Biden’s 2,000 wind turbine goal by 2030 and multilateral agreements such as the Paris Climate Accords.īedrock's 100% electric autonomous underwater vehicle. With extreme weather incidents becoming increasingly common due to climate change, countries worldwide are looking for solutions to mitigate their devastating effects. Bedrock’s two modern technologically-enabled services work together to accelerate commercial wind development cycles, providing survey status and data immediately – up to 10 times faster than the current solution, the company claims. Bedrock, a vertically-integrated sea-floor data platform and service, has announced the launch of its full-service offering: autonomous ocean surveys powered by the company’s proprietary, 100% electric autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) and Mosaic, a universal cloud-based survey data platform for managing, accessing and sharing any marine survey data from any ongoing or historical survey, which is now open for beta sign-ups.Ĭurrently, the turnaround time of ocean-floor maps is up to 12 months per survey to provide customers with usable commercial sea-floor data.
