ABSTRACT:
A method for measuring the velocity and direction of currents in the ocean nd other bodies of water. A first vehicle travels through water and leaves behind a trail of dye. A second vehicle travels, at a later time, the same path as that traveled by the first vehicle, and measures the distance and direction to the trail of dye. The vehicles may travel either from the surfaces downwardly or from the bottom upwardly.
