We are conducting subtidal biodiversity surveys using either an underwater camera or a Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV).  The underwater video sequences are georeferenced to the exact location of the camera, whereas the ROV sequences are only georeferenced to the general area that the ROV is put into the water and where it comes up.  We have included some video sequences from a variety of locations using the ROV.   The onscreen text includes different types of data.  The depth of the ROV is shown on the bottom line in meters.
