I would like to propose a new special interest group (SIG) of "Maritime Robotics".  

The Maritime Robotics SIG will support groups and individuals using ROS for robotic applications under and at the water surface.  Some distinct issues associated with maritime applications include integration of maritime specific sensors (e.g., Doppler velocity logs, multibeam sonar, etc.), intermittent communication and navigation, the influence of buoyancy and hydrodynamics on mobile platforms and the influence of the underwater/near-surface environment on perception.
