Fleet Survey Team shows capabilities

STENNIS SPACE CENTER, Miss. - Four members of the Navy's Fleet Survey Team recently returned from Indonesia where they held an expeditionary hydrography demonstration June 2-19. The team spent the two and a half weeks in the Strait of Malacca in the North Sumatra region familiarizing the Indonesian Department of Oceanography and Hydrography on technology and techniques for very shallow water surveying in beach areas. The Fleet Survey Team is a rapid-response team with capabilities to conduct quick-turnaround hydrographic surveys anywhere in the world. (Source: NNS, 07/11/10)
