Current Activities
Video and Stills Workshop
The workshop was held on 11th and 12th April 2007 bringing together all of the relevant parties from the agencies and industry to discuss the problems that are faced and to work towards a pilot scheme for Video/Stills QA. In addition, best practice in order to produce the highest quality images; will also be discussed The aim is to produce a universal QA scheme that will be usable whatever the desired use of the images. The workshop will consider different scales and a range of techniques (hand-held, drop down, ROV). This is in the spirit of the UKMMAS which encourages agencies to work together where possible to add value to data and assessments.
