The Weather and Climate Authority flashes) USSV: Unmanned Sea Vessel (Wave Glider) Measures ocean wave height, MSLP, wind speed and direction, temperature, ocean current
Acquired in 2018. Test launch was USSV glides into open ocean remotely done in Daet last controlled via satellite communication in 21-24 April 2018. central office in Quezon City.
USSV will be deployed when a Typhoon is approaching to get data over the ocean.
