OWL | Hyper-Spectral Laser Induced Fluorescence LiDAR to detect Submerged Oil over Water in real-time on a molecular level.

Summary
Ocean Visuals' project centers on the development and deployment of the Oil-in-Water Locator (OWL), a cutting-edge solution designed to address the complex challenges of monitoring and safeguarding coastal undersea environments. By utilizing advanced Hyperspectral
Laser Induced Fluorescence (HLIF) LiDAR sensors, OWL can detect, classify, and quantify oil spills and chemical pollution -quantifying hydrocarbon presence- both on water surfaces and submerged within the depths. This innovation empowers real-time, accurate, and
comprehensive surveillance, revolutionizing our ability to protect and manage undersea ecosystems, mitigate environmental damage, and ensure the safety of coastal regions.
