Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating vehicle recovery services and other demanded services. An exemplary system, accessible by one or more remote users via a network, is configured to perform various steps of a method based upon execution of software instructions using a processor, said method steps including providing an electronic platform accessible by one or more remote users, the electronic platform configured to include data relating to one or more demand users and one or more supply users, entering information relating to a new demand into the electronic platform by a new demand user, the new demand relating to a demanded service, contacting one or more of the one or more supply users via text message from the electronic platform, and confirming demanded service in connection with the new demand using the electronic platform.

Abstract: A method of underwater tsunami detection includes detecting a trigger event using disruption of at least one of a plurality of hard disk drives (HDDs), each different one of the plurality of HDDs in a different one of a plurality of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). A time and location of each of the at least one HDD for the trigger event is logged. Based on at least one of the HDD disruptions, times, and locations of the at least one HDD of the plurality of HDDs, a size, strength, and direction of a tsunami caused by the trigger event is determined. Information regarding the tsunami is transmitted to a monitoring station.

Abstract: A method of stereoscopic mapping an underwater location includes determining a relative position and relative distance between two separate sensors on separate underwater platforms. Each of the two separate sensors scans a same underwater feature from its respective determined relative position. A stereoscopic image of the underwater feature is created from the two scanned images.
