“Acqua Alta” oceanographic research platform
- The “Acqua Alta” oceanographic research platform is the site for testing WASS and acquiring space-time wave fields. At present, WASS consist of a pair of 5 megapixel digital cameras (with 2456 columns by 2048 rows array of 3.45-mm square active elements) and mounting 5-mm distortion-less lenses, placed 2.5 m apart and 12.5 m above the mean sea level.
