Mining Operator Invests in CEE-USV™ to Replace Existing RC Sonar Boats

After successful transitions to the CEE-USV™ remotely operated hydrographic survey boat at some of the firm’s other US sites, CEE were again in action conducting a startup and commissioning training course for mine water surveying, this time in the Arizona Desert. Limitations of the previous, “first generation” USV in use at the site for several years meant it was not able to survey the large tailings impoundments without needing to be towed by a manned boat. After  the introduction of the CEE-USV™, with its longer control range and endurance, all the site’s impoundments may be surveyed without needing a manned boat in the picture, improving the job safety.
