A marine geophysical company has launched an artificial intelligence-driven boulder identification tool to reduce development risk, time and costs for offshore wind farm developers. The tool uses machine learning algorithms to automatically detect boulders as small as 25 centimeters in size and remove duplicate boulders. The tool quickly processes the entire seafloor survey area, taking approximately one second per side scan line to detect all boulders. Marine Geophysics will integrate the tool with its specialty products for marine geophysical data processing, interpretation and reporting, noting that the software will not be sold as a standalone product.
