Hi all,

We now have a regular meeting schedule locked in for ROS maritime WG meetings

When: Last Tuesday of each month, 4–5pm EST
First meeting: February 24th, 2026

February agenda:

  • Introduction (I’m taking over as group organizer, figure I should probably introduce myself)

  • Proposed changes, meeting topics, and priorities for 2026

  • Overview of the new website and documentation

In the meantime, take a look at the new site: https://ros-maritime.github.io/maritime_robotic_landscape/

We’ll walk through it during the meeting, but exploring beforehand will help you come with questions and feedback.

Cheers,

Hey all,

Due to the lack of power and reliable internet service along with continued blizzard recovery efforts here on the Cape, this month’s meeting is unfortunately postponed.

I will have more information on a new meeting time in the coming days once power is restored.

Thanks,

Isaac

Just attended a very interesting and useful talk by Chris Thierauf (https://www.cthierauf.com/). I think there’s a lot of value in these working group meetings for anyone working on marine robotics, regardless of middleware, so I’d encourage you to join next time (May 26) if you’re available.
