Funding for North Sea seabed mapping project

摘要

Supply chain innovation for Offshore Renewable Energy (SCORE), a UK funding body, has announced Norwich based Norcom Technology as the latest company to successfully receive grant funding. The £20,000 grant will enable Norcom, which develops software and hardware for navigation and hydrographic survey systems, to develop a desktop and web based application which maps the seabed around the east coast of England. Its eChart Service will be created using data derived from material supplied by the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office and Norcom claims it will be the most advanced seabed map ever created for the North Sea.
