Tenders Are Invited For Laboratory, Optical And Precision Equipment (Excl. Glasses) – Procurement Of An Unmanned Surface Vessel (Usv) With Hydrographic Measurement Equipment For The Hcu

Laboratory, Optical And Precision Equipment (Excl. Glasses) – Procurement Of An Unmanned Surface Vessel (Usv) With Hydrographic Measurement Equipment For The Hcu. With Over 42,000 Students, The University Of Hamburg (Uhh) Is The Largest University In The Free And Hanseatic City Of Hamburg, The Largest Research And Training Institution In Northern Germany And One Of The Largest Universities In Germany. Located In The Heart Of The Free Hanseatic City Of Hamburg, The University Offers A Diverse Range Of Courses And Excellent Research. As The Central Awarding Authority For The Hafencity University Hamburg (Hcu), The University Of Hamburg Carries Out An Open Procedure For A Delivery Service. At Hafencity University Hamburg, An Uncrewed Surface Vehicle (Usv) Will Be Used To Record Hydrographic Data, Including In Very Shallow Waters. The Use Of A Mobile Usv Makes It Possible To Flexibly Collect Bathymetric Data And Other Information About The Water (E.G. Current Velocities), Especially In Domestic Study Areas Such As Lakes Or Rivers. To Record The Different Data And Parameters, The Ups Should Be Equipped With Various, Flexibly Interchangeable Instruments. On The One Hand, The Usv With Hydrographic Measuring Equipment Is Intended To Be Used In Teaching. This Enables Students To Be Trained In The Use Of An Unmanned Or Autonomous Watercraft And Thus Gain Contemporary And Future-Oriented Competence In Hydrography. The Aim Is To Learn Both (Partially) Autonomous Data Acquisition With Multi-Beam Echo Sounders And With Side-View Sonars Or Adcps. On The Other Hand, The Flexibly Configurable Ups Is Used In Research For Several Different Projects. In Addition To The (Cooperative) Autonomous Recording Of Bathymetry In Shallow Waters, The Usv And The Installed Hydrographic Instruments Will Be Used To Record The Water-Land Transition, Underwater Structures And Bank Facilities. The Aim Of The Process Is To Purchase And Deliver A Brand New, Fully Functional Uncrewed Surface Vessel (Usv) With Hydrographic Measurement Equipment (Mbes, Adcp/Dvl, Sss, Gnss-Ins, Etc.). The System Should Preferably Be Delivered By June 1St, 2025. Installation, Commissioning And Training Must Take Place No Later Than One Month After Delivery. The Exact Dates Are Determined In Consultation With The Hcu Employees. The Contractual Term Of The Delivery Order Ends After Final Acceptance Of The Delivery Service And Training Of The Employees.
