Sometimes, we (Hannah and I) sat on the deck, drinking our morning coffee and wonder how is everyone doing? Well, how would we know if you guys NEVER post any blog? :P
Anyway, last week was hell week for Hannah - 4 exams, 3 lab reports and have to take care of the new puppy... and to make things even worse, I have to go out to sea for a couple of days for my project. One of the projects I am working on now is mapping of the underwater habitat of Great Barrier Island (GBI). GBI is 90km northeast of central Auckland. The surveys are done with an underwater camera (no diving) which is mounted on a tripod. The 45-foot boat is very new, very modern and comfortable.
The view around GBI is great with tons of sealife. We enchored in the middle of a fiord during the evenings to get away from the waves. The view in the fiord was even more incredible.
Now, my work really starts after the surveys. I have to put together satellite images and video surveys using ArcGIS.
It was delightful to get home after the surveys... spring is here... the vineyard are blooming, the trees are green and there are flowers everywhere...
