The Special Interest Group for Underwater Acoustics (SIGUA) is holding a 2-day residential event at Guyers House, near Bath on 27-28 January 2025 to explore solutions to research challenges set by industry. This will be the third workshop, following two previous events in 2022 (Sheffield) and 2023 (Bath).
They will also be holding a virtual pre-event on Zoom in December 2024 (TBC). This will enable Challenge Leaders to introduce their datasets and provide early access, and for participants to get to know one another and organise into teams.
This is an opportunity to be exposed to some of the current and future challenges in underwater acoustics and to work together with other researchers, to explore and develop new/innovative solutions. This will be a ‘hackathon’ style event, with small teams working on one of the challenges together for most of the two days, while representatives from industry move between the groups to provide application context and to answer questions.
Overnight stays will include breakfast, lunch and dinner. Day attendees will be provided with lunch. A minibus transfer to/from Bath Spa train station will also be provided.
