Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This project seeks to conduct the first at-sea tests of a novel subsea Raman spectrometer that will provide high-fidelity, quantitative chemical composition data on materials including rocks, sediments, fluids, and biological samples in situ. The instrument, named InVADER, was developed by Impossible Sensing<\/a> with funding from NASA. We will continue working with Impossible Sensing<\/a>, who are co-supporting the development of this instrument through the use of their facilities for testing. It was designed as a prototype for measuring the chemical composition of materials during space missions to explore solar system planets but is equally (if not more) valuable as a tool for ocean exploration on our own planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional efforts funded by BOEM will develop base prediction models for quantitative spectroscopy. In practice, we will scale up micro-scale mapping technologies and quantitative models that we currently use to determine sample homogeneity and micro-scale features to the kilometer scale needed to explore the seafloor. This involves developing low-error interpolation and up-sampling techniques as well as expanding database systems to store geolocated raw, processed and analyzed spectra. Developing a georeferenced database is not only key to post-processing but also to creating updated mineral maps and predictions in near real-time. We will do this by geolocating compositional information from Hercules. To do this, we will develop autoencoders based on machine learning that feature deep neural networks to up-sample low-resolution data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
