The Coast Guard is alerted that a large quantity of hazardous chemicals has been illegally dumped into a bay. There may be a threat to those residing nearby.
The Coast Guard contacts the local NOAA Navigation Response Team who activates their Jaia Bot pod and plans a mission in less than 30 minutes. They deploy the JaiaBot pod at a safe distance from the suspected chemical source. Traveling at high speed to the spill area the JaiaBots rapidly characterize the boundary of the spill and collect data through the water column to assess the extent of the chemical spread and the direction it travels. The real-time time data is transmitted to the operators who can make a situational assessment and response recommendation to the Coastguard for assessment and remediation.
