| contents | Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASV) are becoming more affordable and include a wide variety of sensors and capacities with applications from ocean physics such as the Saildrone project to ecology with the tracking of marine species in the wild. Here, we present a multi-modal, affordable, open source, and reproducible ASV to track marine animal in shallow waters, collect information on bathymetry, and carry out photogrammetry surveys. The current specification enables scientists to track an animal equipped with an acoustic tag for 5~h and a spatial accuracy of 1~m. For bathymetric or photogrammetry surveys, the ASV can cover 100 x 100~m areas in 2~h with a distance of 1-m between transects. Depending on the sensors included in the ASV, it has a price ranging from \$2,434 to \$11,072. We illustrate these developments with a case study and a field survey for each of the different application proposed. |
