Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

Jasco Applied Sciences (Canada) Ltd.

$457,713.00

Generation 4 (G4) Ocean Acoustic Observing System

FY 2018-19 · 2019-02-04

Summary
JASCO wants to update its autonomous acoustic data recording devices and to add real-time, in-situ monitoring systems for in-situ processing to derive desired informational products. The Firm's clients want JASCO to telemeter this information to shore via cellular, VHF, WiFi, Iridium, cabled networks, and acoustic modems. We need to warehouse, process, and visualize extremely large volumes of acoustic data and derived informational products. JASCO must add new and improved signal processing algorithms to automate detection, identification, localization, and measurement of sounds in the ocean (i.e., deriving the information of interest).

Description (French)
JASCO veut mettre à jour ses dispositifs autonomes d'enregistrement de données acoustiques et ajouter des systèmes de surveillance in situ en temps réel pour le traitement in situ afin d'obtenir les produits informationnels souhaités. Les clients de l'entreprise veulent que JASCO télémètre cette information à terre au moyen de téléphones cellulaires, VHF, WiFi, Iridium, réseaux câblés, et modems acoustiques. Nous devons entreposer, traiter et visualiser des volumes extrêmement importants de données acoustiques et de produits d'information dérivés. JASCO doit ajouter de nouveaux algorithmes améliorés de traitement du signal pour automatiser la détection, l'identification, la localisation et la mesure des sons dans l'océan (c.-à-d. pour en dériver les informations dignes d'intérêt).
