Welcome to the 9th International Shallow Survey Conference

The Theme of Shallow Survey 2022 “Coastal Challenges: Innovative approaches to mapping shallow coastal water environments” is a key feature of this conference series.

This is the 9th International Shallow Survey Conference which will be held over five days in May 2022 at New Zealand's National Museum & Art Gallery Te Papa Tongarewa. Located on the Wellington waterfront you will be able to take in views of the harbour from within the conference.

These conferences, held every two to three years, focus on the topics associated with surveying in shallow waters, and are recognised world-wide by experts in their chosen field of research and work as an important forum for presenting new scientific and technological advancements in this area. As a component of the conference, survey challenges will be set with the aim of targeting specific research questions and/or areas of interest.
