A tech startup has developed capability to undertake marine or underwater three-dimensional geospatial mapping and analytics that can be used for marine resources mapping and conservation. The 3D underwater geospatial mapping and analytics technology of Antipara Explorations Inc. also has industrial uses as it can be tapped to monitor impacts on the marine environment and biodiversity of commercial shipping and fishing activities as well as oil and natural gas exploration and subsea oil pipeline construction and maintenance. Aside from the 3D geospatial mapping technology, Antipara Explorations has developed a remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) for undersea mapping projects.
