Department Marine Physics and Sensors
The Department "Marine Physics and Sensors" develops and modifies sensors and sensor systems for the analysis of substances and organisms in water. R&D topics can be allocated to two main focal areas, an additional focus is on data management:
Spectroscopic systems
Research focus of “Spectroscopic systems” is the development and validation of sensors, sensor systems and measurement platforms for the detection of hazardous substances in natural, as well as process water, such as water quality measurements in aquaculture or control of bilge water in the shipping industry.

Imaging systems
"Imaging systems" concentrates on the technical and physical requirements for acquisition of measured variables from objects in various media. On the basis of recorded and derived parameters inherent information are spatially visualised.

Data management
Modern and automated sampling campaigns produce data streams that were inconceivable until recently. For sustainable archiving of such volumes the Department “Marine Physics and Sensors” works on concepts and tools for geo-coded treatment. This allows to comply with international political research guidelines for a consistent long-term Data management.
