13Ocean Survey Program (OSP)
- HMS SCOTT Survey Indian Ocean Tsunami
- Following the tragic earthquake and tsunami that
devastated the region on December 26, 2004, the
HMS SCOTT utilized the OSP System to survey the
ocean floor at the epicenter of the quake to help
scientists determine the cause and aid in
development of an early warning system
Looking south, the purple area marks where the
ocean floor, which sits on the Indian tectonic
plate, is pushing into, and moving under, the
Burma plate. The Indonesian landmass sits atop
the Burma plate. A rupture 30km below this area
produced violent shaking, triggering the tsunami.

- Based on the many years of continuous service, I
can confirm that TDI has always provided the
highest quality documentation on time, in
accordance with agreed delivery schedules and
often ahead of schedule. - TDI has always performed with a high degree of
professionalism to fully satisfy the terms of our

us to scale back efforts with TDI for an interim
period, TDI again responded in a highly
professional manner, ensuring that we met our
critical documentation requirements, within the
terms of the contract, keeping us in good
standing with our long term sponsor. - TDI has the technical writing and publishing
skills necessary to generate and keep our 30
volumes of system documentation current, accurate
and user-friendly for the shipboard user. All of
our user and sponsor feedback has always been
positive and TDI's efforts have always reflected
very well on our agency. - My 16-years of experience with TDI has proven to
me that they are a highly qualified reputable
contractor, who has made significant
contributions to the success of our ongoing Ocean
