Underwater Acoustics

We integrate systems with hydrophones and recording devices, both for use on vessels and for remote use, with long-term recorders or remote signal transmission.

We provide comprehensive services with instruments and personnel on board during underwater noise monitoring operations in both near-shore and offshore environments.

We assist you in preparing the preliminary investigations for obtaining permits for the construction of offshore facilities, from the initial environmental monitoring plans to post-operational validation checks.

We develop software and procedures for managing acoustic archives and classifying the contents of recordings.

Marine and Riverine Litter

JunkTrack: tracking and modeling free-floating litter

JunkTrack allows you to monitor the movement of free-floating plastic waste in rivers, lakes and seas. Small GPS tracking devices, set into waterproof containers, simulate and report about the behavior of litter in water.

The trackers are equipped with long-life batteries (2-4 years) and can send their position several times a day to a map server.

A central server collects and organizes the data received, filters valid data and graphically display the path of the waste over time.

JunkTrack is an original project developed by NAUTA scientific with NaturalGIS (www.naturalgis.pt).

Underwater noise

We offer comprehensive services for studying noise generated by human activities at sea. From data collection and validation to the drafting of technical reports for Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA).

BioAcoustics on land

We record and analyse ultrasonic sounds emitted by bats, insects and other animals.

Our portable or installable devices detect signals up to 190 kHz for biodiversity studies, bioacoustics and environmental assessments.

Our mission

Our goal is to provide unparalleled precision, efficiency, and innovative solutions, ensuring top-tier service that respects your budget.

We provide a complete suite of services, including project planning, data acquisition, and regulatory reporting, aligning seamlessly with the specifications of governing authorities.
