Field school in u/w recon and low-viz mapping

IMH will hold a four-day field school in underwater reconnaissance by sidescan sonar, and site mapping in low-visibility water.  Tentative dates are 15-16 and 22-23 August 2009.

The school will be based at Tall Timbers MD.  It will comprise one day ashore and one day afloat, for divers and non-divers, and two days in the water mapping two wrecks in the lower Potomac (divers only).

Space is limited, but some slots are still available.  If more people sign up than we can accommodate, we will offer it again later in the year.
