Polar Solutions

Air Deployable Polar iSVP

The Surface Velocity Program (SVP, iSVP) drifting buoy is a Lagrangian current-following drifter, designed to track water currents (15 metres depth) beneath the ocean surface.

Ice Beacon

Ice Beacons measure ice movement (GPS position), atmospheric parameters, ice thickness and temperatures, and subsurface parameters.

UpTempO

The MetOcean Telematics Inductive Modem UpTempO buoy is an Iridium reporting data collection and processing system, designed for oceanographic and polar applications.

Snow Buoy

The Snow Buoy’s primary function is to measure snow depth at remote sites where high reliability, low power consumption, and dependable operation is critical.

POPS

The POPS platform provides meteorological and oceanographic subsurface data, transmitted via Iridium telemetry (RUDICS).

CALIB

The Compact Air-Launched Ice Beacon (CALIB) is an Iridium Satellite or Argos reporting mini-beacon (NATO grade “A-size” sonobuoy configuration).

Polar iSVP

The Polar iSVP is an expendable, low-cost, bi-directional Iridium communications spherical marker buoy.
