Submarine inspections and surveys require underwater vehicles to operate in deep waters efficiently, safely and reliably. Autonomous Underwater Vehicles employing advanced navigation and control systems present several advantages. Robust control algorithms and novel improvements in positioning and navigation are needed to optimize underwater operations. This paper proposes a new general formulation of this problem together with a basic approach for the management of deep underwater operations. This approach considers the field of view and the operational requirements as a fundamental input in the development of the trajectory in the autonomous guidance system. The constraints and involved variables are also defined, providing more accurate modelling compared with traditional formulations of the positioning system. Different case studies are presented based on commercial underwater cameras/sonars, analysing the influence of the main variables in the measurement process to obtain optimal resolution results. The application of this approach in autonomous underwater operations ensures suitable data acquisition processes according to the payload installed onboard.

In der heutigen Zeit sind durch steigende Variantenvielfalt und Individualfertigung sowie enge Lieferzeiten unterstützende IT-Systeme in der Fertigung unerlässlich. Gerade für kleine und mittlere Unternehmen (KMU) stellt dies eine Herausforderung dar, weil individuelle Schnittstellenentwicklungen und maschinenspezifische Anbindungen zeit- und kostenintensiv sind. Mit einer Produktionsplanungs- und Steuerungssystem als Integrationsplattform sowie einer allgemeingültige Schnittstelle zur Maschinenanbindung kann dem bestehenden Handlungsbedarf entsprochen werden.   Nowadays, due to the increasing variety of variants and individual production as well as tight delivery times, supporting IT systems are indispensable in production. This poses a particular challenge for SMEs, since individual interface developments and machine-specific connections are time-consuming and costly. These challenges can be met by using a Production Planning and Control system as an integration platform and a generally valid interface to the machine connection.
