Abstract:
Abstract: The smart landmine and restraining shoes project is an innovative solution to reduce the risk of accidental detonation of landmines. The project involves the use of an esp32 module and an RFID tag embedded in a special shoe. When the shoe with the RFID tag is placed on the landmine, it acts as a safety mechanism preventing the mine from being triggered. This technology ensures that the shoes do not trigger the landmines when army personnel steps on them. However, if a terrorist step on the shoe, the RFID tag is detected, causing the landmine to detonate and neutralize the threat.

Abstract:
The Smart Shoe Rack with face recognition is most likely one of the newest projects to have been introduced of its kind. In a Hindu country, temples are almost everywhere, inside the valley as well as outside, where one has to take off his footwear before entering. One of the most common yet overlooked problems is shoe misplacement in crowded temple areas. Therefore, to sort out this major problem, the idea of a Smart Shoe Keeping with face recognition has been proposed in this paper. By the use of microcontrollers, raspberry pi captures face encoding of a person and along with adjusting stepper motors, the shoe can be stacked at one of the sixteen different locations. The use of a clock helps in determining the stepper position at every instance. With face recognition technology, the shoes can be fetched. Once the face is recognized, it is matched with the previously captured person, and the system checks for the available shoe. The position of the stepper is then identified, and the shoe is fetched through the shortest path possible by the step anti/clockwise rotation of the stepper motor. The total time of storage of the footwear displayed in the LCD is then used for charging the amount of money accordingly.

Abstract:

 Shoe retail store is a company engaged in the sale of shoes that are developing. Until now, shoe retail stores still rely on physical stores in their business. Because it is engaged in sales, the shoe retail store requires an information system for finding a route to the store that can facilitate prospective buyers to find the location of the shoe retail store. With the shop route search information system, it can facilitate prospective buyers who do not yet know the location of the shoe retail store to find where the store is located. From the writer's observation, there are several shoe retail shops that are not indexed on Google Maps. Therefore, the author raises the title of the final project entitled "Information System for Route Search Towing the Nearest Shoe Retail Shop Using the Android-Based Dijkstra Method", to facilitate prospective buyers in the PT Stars International shoe store in finding the location of the shoe retail store. has been made, this application can run on smart phones running Android with versions starting from version 4.0.3. and the functions of this application can also run well. for the difference in distance calculation by the system using the dijkstra calculation and google maps distance calculation, a difference of 9,196% is obtained from an average of 25 random sample calculations.

Abstract:
IoT-enabled smart shoes for the blind is equipped with ultrasonic sensors paired with an Arduino UNO board. The Internet of Things (IoT) facilitates communication among physical objects and between objects and humans. This enabling technology is experiencing rapid development and growth in the market. In India, there are nearly 40 million blind individuals, including 1.6 million children. Blind people encounter significant challenges in traveling independently and rely on others for various aspects of daily life. A major difficulty arises when navigating roads, as their canes may not detect every obstacle. The smart shoe design offers a long-term solution, enabling blind individuals to travel independently on roads. This shoe incorporates IoT technology, embedding various sensors, a microcontroller, and buzzers. The shoe alerts the user with buzzer sounds upon detecting obstacles ahead. To enhance efficiency, smart glasses using IoT technology have been developed, equipped with sensors to detect objects over a wider area. The smart shoes and smart glasses communicate and coordinate to ensure the user avoids collisions with obstacles in their path.

Abstract:
Currently, smart shoes are not as common as other wearable devices such as fitness trackers or smartwatches. However, with the continuous improvement in sensor and IOT technologies, it is expected that shoes with smart capabilities will catch up with the other popular wearables. The emergence of 3D knitting and its subsequent application in footwear manufacture has revolutionized the shoe manufacturing process. The use of knitwear allows for shoe parts such as the upper or the sole (insole, Strobel sole, midsole and/or outer sole) to be tailored with specific areas having different characteristics and providing different functions with low production effort. This study presents the design and manufacture of a knitted smart sneaker for cadence mensuration. The specified part of the sneaker is knitted with silverplated polyester yarn to serve as a strain sensor. During the weight-bearing and release phases of the foot, while walking, this strain sensor is stressed and relaxed by this oscillatory phenomenon thus allowing footstep data to be measured. Stride estimate tests were carried out and the results established that strides taken by a user can accurately be correlated to the readings of the system. This study is the first to develop a smart shoe-sensing system where the sensor is inherently embedded within the shoe upper.

Abstract:
Abstract: In this article, a piezoelectric shoe system that stores and harnesses walking kinetic energy to generate electric current for cell measurement and charging a smartphone is designed and constructed. It captures the forces exerted by walking, utilising mechanical stress through piezoelectric sensors, into electrical energy by means of a 27mm piezoelectric disk. Main components include: piezoelectric sheets, silicone adhesives, 1N4007 diodes, and a 3.7V rechargeable lithium-ion battery. This intelligent shoe therefore has the potential of being used independently without much effort towards its maintenance. Preliminary tests promise that the smart shoes would really be able to provide their users with a source of sustainable power, particularly in remote or outdoor settings.

Previously developed methods for legged locomotion force detection involved convoluted sensing systems and significant external equipment. This thesis builds upon previous developed smart shoe sensors adapted from the MIT Cheetah robot using pressure sensors embedded in urethane rubber, Smooth-On's Vytaflex® 20. Past work developed accurate material models in Abaqus CAE to simulate foot contacts for compression and shear. This thesis builds upon the FEA models for two sensor sizes to create a simple model to measure torque and contact angle given force measured by the sensor. Using experiments with physical footpads on a CNC mill verified by simulations from Abaqus FEA, we derived models for contact angles between 0 to 15 degrees and rolling movement from -7 to 7 degrees at various compressions. Models successfully derive relationships between roll and contact angle versus force. These models can be used as a jumping point for data analysis using the smart shoe sensor.<br>by Jingya (Lauren) Luo.<br>S.B.

Abstract:
This thesis deals with a new marketing tool for campaigns to support product sales at the point of sales. Banner can appropriately draw customer's attention and also persuade to unplanned impulsive purchase. It is a plastic pocket that can hold posters to support individual product or brands of companies and also can be changed quite often. Uniqueness of the solution lies in the location of the advertising space. In case an LCD monitor is part of the cash register, the banner is located on the other side directly exposed to the eyes of customers. The aim of the thesis is to present a new marketing tool and ideally prove that the right use of visual communication means is able to encourage impulsive purchases even in the environment of a Czech bank. Even though it was not completely proven that the banner can encourage impulsive purchases in banks, the whole concept has been prepared, it's potential revealed and the possible effective uses for normal practice have been formulated.

Abstract:
The potential of Digital twin (DT) technology outside of the industrial field has been recognized by researchers who have promoted the vision of applying DTs technology beyond manufacturing, to purposes such as enhancing human well-being and improving quality of life (QoL). The expanded definition of DTs to incorporate living and nonliving physical entities into the definition of DTs was a key motivation behind the model introduced in this thesis for building health digital twins of citizens. In contrast with DTs that have been developed in more industrial fields, this type of digital twins modeling necessitates protecting each citizen's unique identity while also representing features common to all citizens in a unified way. In nature, DNA is an example of a model that is both unified, common to all humans, and unique, distinguishing each human as an individual. DNA’s architecture is what inspired us to propose a digital twin DNA (DT-DNA) model as the basis for building health DTs for citizens. A review of the literature shows that no unified model for citizens’ health has been developed that can act as a base for building digital twins of citizens while also protecting their unique identity thus we aim to fill this gap in this research. Accordingly, in this thesis, we proposed a DT-DNA model, which is specifically designed to protect the unique identity of each citizen’s digital twin, similar to what DNA does for each human. We also proposed a DT-DNA-based framework to build standardized health digital twins of citizens on micro, meso and macro levels using two ISO standards: ISO/IEEE 11073 (X73) and ISO 37120. To achieve our goal, we started by analyzing the biological DNA model and the influencing factors shaping health in smart cities. The purpose of the first is to highlight the DNA model features which provide the building blocks for our DT-DNA model. The purpose of the latter is to determine the main bases of our DT-DNA model of health DTs. Based on the analysis results; we proposed DT-DNA to model health DTs for citizens. In keeping with our DNA analogy, we have identified four bases, A, T, G, and C, for our unified and unique DT-DNA model. The A base in the proposed model represents a citizen’s anthropometric when we build the DT-DNA on an individual level and represents the city’s regulatory authorities when we build the DT-DNA on community and city levels. The T base represents different tasks included in the provided health data that are required to model citizens’ health DT-DNA on different levels. The G base represents the geographic and temporal information of the city, where the citizen exists at the time of data collection. The C base represents the context at the time of data collection. To proof the concept, we present our initial work on building health DTs for citizens in four case studies. The first two case studies are dedicated for health DTs at the micro level, the third case study is dedicated for health DTs at the meso level and the fourth case study is dedicated for health DTs at the macro level. In addition, we developed an algorithm to compare cities in terms of their community fitness and health services status. The four case studies provide promising results in terms of applicability of the proposed DT-DNA model and framework in handling the health data of citizens, communities and cities, collected through various sources, and presenting them in a standardized, unique model.

Abstract:
Projektet beskriver ett tillvägagångssätt för att alstra energi genom solceller och piezoelektronik. Ett kretskortsbaserat system designades som utnyttjade superkondensatorer som lagringsenhet. Planen var att integrera systemet i en sko. Genom denna teknik kan man då substituera eller minimera batteriladdningen för smarta enheter eller mindre anordningar. Det önskvärda resultatet med projektet var att se om det gick att koppla detta system till en mikrokontroller som kunde drivas på låg spänning. Rapporten fick ett positivt resultat med en konstant utspänning på 1.8 volt som kunde driva en mikrokontroller. Dock tog det lång tid för superkondensatorerna att laddas upp på grund av den impedans som fanns i systemet. Aktiviteter som utnyttjar detta system kommer att påverka uppladdningens resultat. Detta gör kretsen optimal för aktiviteter som involverar rörelse och sol, såsom hiking.<br>The past couple of decades gave rise to smartphones, smart watches, and smart homes. Now researchers are looking for ways to make smart clothing. One use case of smart clothing is smart shoes which can give some very useful sensed information especially in the sports industry and healthcare. Such sensed data include temperature, distance and calories, fall detection and many more. This application scenario can be designed to be battery free if we make use of the human motion and solar power. Many research papers exist which present how to exploit swing and shock excitations from the shoes to harvest energy. In this project this energy combined with solar energy will be used to power a low driven MCU. I design a pcb which include solar panels and piezoelectric modules to store the energy in supercapacitors. The goal is to integrate this pcb in a shoe, meaning that it has to have a small size and low power. The results of the project showed that a constant voltage at 1.8 volt could be achieved however recharge time is a factor to take into consideration. The system showed positive results for activities including movements and sun such as hiking.

Langendahl, Per-Anders, Maria Tunberg, and Suvi Kokko. Smart Urban Agriculture : exploring its development in Sweden. SLU Future food, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.54612/a.7hllg1t7av.

Full text
Abstract:
Smart urban agriculture initiatives where food is produced in closed, controlled and digitally augmented environments, such as vertical farms, plant factories and aquaponics systems can be found in cities across the globe. Such initiatives produce fresh food all year around using less chemicals and require fewer food miles. However, critiques of smart urban agriculture suggest it is a marginal activity that often produces food with low nutritional value and requires energy intensive artificial lighting. Technological advances in digitalisation and food production as well as social and economic developments may create opportunities for smart urban food systems to address these issues and become a more realistic food supply in cities. Using qualitative research methods, this report explores the development of smart urban agriculture in Sweden. Specifically, it identifies experimental and entrepreneurial initiatives and analyses these initiatives in relation to high level policy agendas such as food policy, smart city and digitalisation. Our findings show that smart urban agriculture broadly consists of technology-oriented entrepreneurial start-ups and experimental initiatives that includes, but are not limited to production, community and technology oriented initiatives. Production oriented initiatives are mainly organised to produce herbs and leafy greens; community oriented initiatives are mainly prioritising social benefits; and technology oriented initiatives develop and supply digital solutions and services for smart farming. These initiatives are interesting because of their claims about superior sustainability performance compared with conventional food production. Specifically these sustainability claims include resource efficient production in contained farming environments that are chemical free and can be located close to the market. Given the sustainability debate inherent with food production and consumption, smart (urban) agriculture has gained commercial traction and momentum, e.g. financial investments. The product output is, however, limited to a small variety of financial high margin crops that are sold at premium prices on the market. When examining smart urban agriculture in relation to high level strategic agendas, our findings show that urban agriculture is recognised for its environmental and social benefits (e.g. to mitigate flooding as well as offer space for recreation), but not as a realistic food supply. Here, food policies have a conventional view in that food is produced in rural areas and consumed in urban areas. The developments of smart urban agriculture challenge this conventional view. However, food production-consumption systems are excluded from high level policy agendas on smart cities and digitalisation. These insights suggest that there are established institutional arrangements (e.g. in food policy and urban planning) that may constrain development and uptake of smart urban agriculture and its possibility to bring significant sustainability benefits.

Hicks, Jacqueline. Export of Digital Surveillance Technologies From China to Developing Countries. Institute of Development Studies, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2022.123.

Full text
Abstract:
There is evidence to show that Chinese companies, with some state credit backing, are selling digital surveillance technologies to developing countries, which are then sometimes used in authoritarian practices. However, there is little direct evidence to show that surveillance technologies sold by Chinese companies have more authoritarian potential than the technologies sold by non-Chinese companies. Some researchers define “surveillance technologies” as including any form of digital infrastructure. There is data to show that developing country governments are contracting Chinese companies to build digital infrastructures. Other researchers define “surveillance technologies” as smart city projects. It is estimated that in 2019, Chinese smart city technologies have been purchased in over 100 countries worldwide. Other researchers look at more specific elements of smart cities: There are estimates that the “AI surveillance” components of smart cities have been purchased in 47-65 countries worldwide, and the “data integration” security platforms in at least 80 countries. None of these figures imply anything about how these technologies are used. The “dual use” nature of these technologies means that they can have both legitimate civilian and public safety uses as well as authoritarian control uses. There is evidence of some governments in Africa using Chinese surveillance technologies to spy on political opponents and arrest protesters. Some authors say that some Chinese smart city projects are actually not very effective, but still provide governments with a “security aesthetic”. Research also shows that Chinese smart city technologies have been sold mostly to illiberal regimes. However, in the wider context, there is also ample evidence of non-Chinese surveillance technologies contributing to authoritarian control in developing countries. There is also evidence that UK companies sell surveillance technologies to mostly illiberal regimes. Some reports consulted for this rapid review imply that Chinese surveillance technologies are more likely to be used for authoritarian control than those sold by non-Chinese companies. This analysis is largely based on circumstantial rather than direct evidence. They rely on prior judgements, which are themselves subject to ongoing enquiry in the literature: Almost all of the reports consulted for this rapid review say that the most important factor determining whether governments in developing countries will deploy a particular technology for repressive purposes is the quality of governance in the country. No reports were found in the literature reviewed of Chinese state pressure on developing countries to adopt surveillance technologies, and there were some anecdotal reports of officials in developing countries saying they did not come under any pressure to buy from Chinese companies.

Kwon, Heeseo Rain, HeeAh Cho, Jongbok Kim, Sang Keon Lee, and Donju Lee. International Case Studies of Smart Cities: Pangyo, Republic of Korea. Inter-American Development Bank, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0007011.

Full text
Abstract:
This case study is one of ten international studies developed by the Korea Research Institute for Human Settlements (KRIHS), in association with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), for the cities of Anyang, Medellin, Namyangju, Orlando, Pangyo, Rio de Janeiro, Santander, Singapore, Songdo, and Tel Aviv. At the IDB, the Competitiveness and Innovation Division (CTI), the Fiscal and Municipal Management Division (FMM), and the Emerging and Sustainable Cities Initiative (ESCI) coordinated the study. This project was part of technical cooperation ME-T1254, financed by the Knowledge Partnership Korean Fund for Technology and Innovation of the Republic of Korea. At KRIHS, the National Infrastructure Research Division coordinated the project and the Global Development Partnership Center provided the funding. Pangyo is a new city built from 2003 onwards near Seoul with a vision to become the Silicon Valley of Korea. Approximately 75 million USD of the development gain was allocated to smart city implementation, which took place in one shot within 3-4 years along with the city construction. Pangyo classifies its services into smart portal, facility management, security, disaster, and environment. Interesting aspects of Pangyo are the use of smart kiosk media boards for information provision and real-time management of street lights and waterworks. Key advantage of Pangyo is the low concern for investment overlap from simultaneous development of new city and smart city system, which also enabled high degree of integration of various functions in a spacious smart city operation center as well as utilization of fiber-optic network. Pangyo is currently making various attempts to generate revenue to cover maintenance cost through attracting advertisement on media boards and kiosks, and providing education contents to citizens at low charge.

Integration of smart building technologies costs and CO2 emissions within the framework of the new EPIQR-web application. Department of the Built Environment, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.54337/aau541616188.

Full text
Abstract:
The EPIQR method was developed between 1996 and 1998 within the framework of the European research programme JOULE II and with the support of the Swiss Federal Office for Education and Science. In its first versions, the EPIQR software and EPIQR+ that succeeded it, were desktop tools, allowing a precise diagnosis of the state of deterioration of an existing building and the elaboration of renovation scenarios including the different costs of the necessary works. However, deep refurbishment rate is still low. Climatic emergency state declared by most of the Swiss Cantons makes it necessary to search also for other strategies for urgent reduction of CO2 emissions. As part of the PRELUDE project, a web version of this tool has been developed to integrate both smart technologies and energy optimization actions. Some of them can be considered as soft actions, making it possible to develop a soft renovation roadmap for buildings that are not scheduled for renovation in the short term. As examples, the costs of optimization contracts, intelligent heating control, demand-controlled ventilation, abandonment of heat production from fossil fuels, integration of renewable energies into the building, and communities’ creation for self-consumption of photovoltaic production have now been modelled. Το help the residential building stock fit with the CO2 reduction of 60% by 2030 compliance and the “2000 W society” energy sobriety target by 2050, the EPIQR-WEB database includes the CO2 indirect emissions of each refurbishment action. Hence, this updated version enables the building diagnosis expert to evaluate and optimise deep refurbishment scenarios, from both financial and environmental point of view. Parallel calculation of CO2 indirect emissions with the calculation of refurbishment cost is done without extra time cost for the user. The paper will show the software new functions, the EPIQR-WEB database expansion and how its overall results can be used to meet the European Union Climate Target through a realistic and comprehensive investment plan.

Abstract:
SO277 OMAX served two scientific projects. The objectives of the first project, SMART, were to develop multi-disciplinary methodologies to detect, quantify, and model offshore groundwater reservoirs in regions dominated by carbonate geology such as the Mediterranean Sea. To this end we acquired controlled-source electromagnetic, seismic, hydroacoustic, geochemical, seafloor imagery data off Malta. Preliminary evaluation of the geophysical data show that there are resisitivity anomalies that may represent offshore freshwater aquifers. The absence of evidence for offshore springs means that these aquifers would be confined and that it will be difficult to use them in a sustainable manner. The objective of the second project, MAPACT-ETNA, is to monitor the flank of Etna volcano on Sicily which is slowly deforming seaward. Here, we deployed six seafloor geodesy stations and six ocean bottom seismometers for long-term observation (1-3 years). In addition, we mapped the seafloor off Mt. Etna and off the island of Stromboli to constrain the geological processes that control volcanic flank stability.

Full text
Abstract:
The BeefLedger Export Smart Contracts project is a collaborative research study between BeefLedger Ltd and QUT co-funded by the Food Agility CRC. This project exists to deliver economic value to those involved in the production, export and consumption of Australian beef to China through: (1) reduced information asymmetry; (2) streamlined compliance processes, and; (3) developing and accessing new data-driven value drivers, through the deployment of decentralised ledger technologies and associated governance systems. This report presents early insights from a survey deployed to Chinese consumers in Nov/Dec 2019 exploring attitudes and preferences about blockchain-credentialed beef exports to China. Our results show that most local and foreign consumers were willing to pay more than the reference price for a BeefLedger branded Australian cut and packed Sirloin steak at the same weight. Although considered superior over Chinese processed Australian beef products, the Chinese market were sceptical that the beef they buy was really from Australia, expressing low trust in Australian label and traceability information. Despite lower trust, most survey respondents were willing to pay more for traceability supported Australian beef, potentially because including this information provided an additional sense of safety. Therefore, traceability information should be provided to consumers, as it can add a competitive advantage over products without traceability.

Full text
Abstract:
Digital technologies can boost regional and sectoral productivity, yet firms in Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) countries are experiencing shortfalls in digital uptake and innovation. This is partly due to a scarcity of knowledge suppliers able to respond to the region's or countries' diverse needs. Digital innovation hubs (DIHs) can offer a collaborative, location-based approach and address these gaps. This study analyzes data from over 300 DIHs in Europe, revealing that university-affiliated DIHs offer sophisticated services, such as collaborative research and testing facilities, while industry-affiliated DIHs focus on activities closer to the market, including mentoring and ecosystem building. Three case studies show that establishing a DIH is not achieved overnight but is instead a learning and improvement process; that a DIH evolves in response to regional needs and assets; and that DIHs require reliable funding for their development, particularly public financing, in their early stages. Hence, LAC policymakers should take in to account the need for a context-sensitive, context-adaptive strategy when promoting DIHs as a tool for public policy. Voucher programs and regional policies for productive development, such as smart specialization strategies, could also refine and mobilize the demand for specific digital technologies, facilitating the establishment of DIH-type initiatives.

Canto, Patricia, ed. The role of vocational training knowledge intensive business services. (Main conclusions). Universidad de Deusto, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.18543/vyqr9353.

Full text
Abstract:
In the global economic model, the service sector continues to gain ground on the manufacturing sector and trends such as the integration of new technologies into production processes are advancing inexorably. Advanced economies are pushed to specialise, supported by their regional innovation systems, and cities are emerging as key and strategic centres of activity. In this context, Knowledge Intensive Business Services (KIBS) are presented as critical due to their capacity to promote innovation within the regional productive fabric and smart specialisation strategies, the promotion of advanced manufacturing, the generation of quality employment and the stimulation of economic growth, especially in urban environments. This is why many cities, prioritizing KIBS to stimulate their economy, need to create and retain talent for this sort of industry. Likewise, vocational and education training (VET) systems, such as the Basque VET system, have so far developed their greatest strengths in the field of manufacturing knowledge. Due to this, VET seems to be obliged to adapt to this new scenario, in which KIBS and cities stand out, in order to continue to maintain their level of excellence. KIBS have been extensively examined, but until now no one had posed the following questions: What is the role of vocational training in KIBS? To what extent are VET profiles (and will VET profiles be) relevant in KIBS? This study will show an emerging trend in the labour market. This is the growing relevance of technology profiles with VET background in KIBS, especially in technology-based KIBS. VET technology profiles can be consolidated as one of the main implementing agents of the digital transformation (cybersecurity, blockchain, cloud computing, UX design, artificial intelligence, scientific computing...). To this end, hybridisation with other fields of knowledge but also with studies of other kinds such as university studies may be essential.

Full text
Abstract:
ALKOR cruise AL548 took place as part of the EMFF (European Maritime and Fisheries Fund)-funded project BASTA (Boost Applied munition detection through Smart data inTegration and AI workflows; https://www.basta-munition.eu) and as continuation of the munition monitoring started within the BMBF-funded project UDEMM (Environmental Monitoring for the Delaboration of Munition in the Sea; https://udemm.geomar.de/). In October 2018, a first cruise (POS530 MineMoni2018) was conducted, to gather data for a broad baseline study in the German Baltic Sea. Results show a moderate contamination level on regional and coastal scale, but indicate higher levels for specific local areas. Within UDEMM, expertise was developed to detect, exactly locate and monitor munition (e.g. torpedoes, sea mines, ground mines) on the seafloor using optical and hydroacoustic means. In addition, chemical analyses of dissolved contaminants in the water and sediments was performed. Data acquired during this cruise are used in BASTA, which aims for enhanced munition detection via AUV-based artificial intelligence applied on multi-sensor datasets. At the same time, the project ExPloTect (Ex-situ, near-real-time exPlosive compound deTection in seawater) (also EMFF-funded) addresses the need for an innovative approach to detect explosive compounds in seawater. A prototype system was used and successfully tested for the first time during this cruise. The main focus was placed onto the two already known dumpsites Kolberger Heide and Lübeck Bight. Additionally, new areas Falshöft (Schleswig-Holstein) and Cadet Channel, Trollegrund and Großklützhöved (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) were explored. In each area high-resolution multibeam mapping was performed and contact lists, indicating potential munition objects were produced on board. AUV surveys were conducted to ground-truth possible contacts via detailed photograph and magnetometer mapping. This was complemented with towed video (TV)-CTD profiles. The transits to and between those sites were planned along former constraint routes during WWII. These routes were main targets of the British Air Force and mines and bombs can be expected along these ways. During transits water samples were taken with on a CTD- (conductivity, temperature, depth) rosette-mounted Niskin bottles in regular distances, in order to obtain a comprehensive understanding munition compounds (inter alia trinitrotoluene (TNT)) measurements across the German Baltic Sea.
