Do you develop, maintain or use open source software (OSS) on your AUVs, ASVs, ROVs, etc.?

Open Ocean Software would like to invite you to our first community day at the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, UK, where you can expect focused talks, in-depth discussions, and plenty of time for networking in a single-track format. This is also your chance to have early feedback on the goals and implementation of the Open Ocean Software organization.

Open Ocean Software is a new initiative to support building ecosystems around OSS for marine robots to improve technical quality, security, maintainability, documentation, interoperability, and to build a vibrant human community around the topic. Open Ocean Software is led by a team of collaborators who have collectively spent decades deploying AUVs in diverse real-world environments running a range of OSS projects. We are currently funded by the US National Science Foundation under the Pathways to Enable Open-Source Ecosystems (POSE) initiative.

This workshop will take place on Friday, 4 September 2026, directly following the IEEE OES AUV Symposium, also held in Southampton.
