The seagrass mapping project, funded by SouthamptonGeospatial & Southampton Marine and Maritime Institute and led by Hachem Kassem from our School
uses autonomous surface and underwater vessels (ASV/AUV), diver surveys and machine learning to help protect seagrass in the Studland Bay Marine Conservation Zone.

We got 'famous' with our #CitizenScience project 🫣 Cannot believe how much attention we suddenly got here. Glad people were so interested in the initiave 🥰
