Ocean Survey Program (OSP)

• The Ocean Survey Program (OSP), is a system
  developed by the Marine Navigation Division at
  Space and Naval Warfare (SPAWAR) Systems Center
  Pacific.  
• The Ocean Survey Program is a complex shipboard
  system of integrated navigation, multi-beam sonar
  and control and display systems encompassing
  over fifty  60-inch cabinets, 17-computers and
  over 125-computer programs.

Ocean 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.

• Customer Testimonials and Contact Information
• 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
  contracts and there have never been any disputed
  issues.  Even when our funding constraints forced
  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
  Survey Program meeting critical fleet needs and I
  am happy to be given the opportunity to make this
  recommendation.
