UWILD Class Inspections with 3D MappingMarseille

Underwater Inspection in Lieu of Drydocking (UWILD) lets a vessel satisfy a classification society's periodic hull survey requirement without hauling out — provided the inspection meets the society's documentation standard. We run the survey to DNV, Lloyd's Register, or ABS requirements and back it with a 3D model of the hull carrying clickable 4K video callouts at every survey point the class surveyor needs to sign off, rather than a flat PDF report referencing photo numbers.

Why it matters in Marseille

France's largest port, and home to DRASSM — France's national department for underwater archaeological research — reflecting the Mediterranean coast's density of documented ancient wreck sites nearby.

A major commercial port sitting alongside France's own underwater archaeology authority makes Marseille a genuine fit for both vessel/infrastructure survey work and non-invasive heritage-site documentation.

Deliverable

A class-ready UWILD survey package: 3D hull model with pinned, clickable video callouts at every mandatory inspection point.
