Naval Oceanography is home to the 24-hour, seven-days a week Glider Operations Center—a UUV program established in 2010 of civilian pilots who command and control an inventory of over 130 LBS-G. These buoyancy-driven UUVs are deployed globally, using satellite communication to set predetermined locations in collecting data.
