Abstract :
The authors address the current developments of the “PISCIS” project. They focus on the experimental results from recent operational missions with an AUV in a estuarine environment. Besides describing mission planning and logistic details, they also present tools for oceanographic data processing and visualization. This is demonstrated with some examples of collected data
