Global communications rely on subsea cable infrastructure that remains vulnerable to damage from natural hazards and human activity. Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) offer an efficient means to inspect long sections of exposed cable, but uncertainty in cable route maps, small cable diameters and partial burial makes continuous tracking a challenge.
