This vehicle is a heavy working class ROV that weighs approximately 8,000lbs (4 tons) and takes a six-member crew to operate. A three-person team operates the ROV (with two teams working 24 hours a day, in 12-hr shifts). One person serves as the pilot, who is in control of the ROV, and another serves as the co-pilot, who oversees underwater operations and controls the two manipulator arms. A third person stays outside of the van to make sure that the support equipment is functioning properly. The Innovator is equipped with a 3 chip color camera, HD still camera, suction sampler, clam shell grab, and a large 3' portable collection basket. The ROV worked in areas like the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic Ocean from multiple vessels including the NOAA Ship Ronald Brown. </gco:CharacterString> </gmi:description> <gmi:sponsor xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/08D95C427FB128479945893256DADE37" xlink:title="NOAA/OAR/OER - Ocean Exploration and Research (POC)"/> </gmi:MI_Platform>
