  • Increasing interest in measuring the underwater radiated noise from the global fleet due to noise pollution is driving the development of acoustic tech

  • URN measurement captures an acoustic signature

  • There will soon be streamlined methods to take compliant URN measurements such as portable arrays and port-based solutions

  • This is a big opportunity for industry and defense to collaborate and mutually benefit from the increasing number of listening sites and methods.
