Description:
Optic technologies and methods/procedures are established across all areas and scales in limnic and marine research in Germany and develop further continuously. The working group
“Aquatic Optic Technologies” (AOT) constitutes a common platform for knowledge transfer among scientists and users, provides a synergistic environment for the national developer community and will enhance the international visibility of the German activities in this field.
This document summarizes the AOT-procedures and -techniques applied by national
research institutions. We expect to initiate a trend towards harmonization across institutes.
This will facilitate the establishment of open standards, provide better access to
documentation, and render technical assistance for systems integration.
The document consists of the parts:
Platforms and carrier systems outlines the main application areas and the used
technologies.
Focus parameters specifies the parameters measured by means of optical
methods/techniques and indicates to which extent these parameters have a socio-political
dimension. Methods presents the individual optical sensors and their underlying physical methods.
Similarities denominates the common space of AOT-techniques and applications.
National developments lists projects and developer groups in Germany designing optical
high-technologies for limnic and marine scientific purposes.
