Abstract

Summary

In 2014, the Strategic Innovation Promotion Program (SIP) was launched by the Council for Science, Technology, and Innovation (CSTI). One of SIP issues is “Next-Generation Technology for Ocean Resources Exploration”. The main objective is to establish the advanced and effective ocean resources survey technology. The main target is Seafloor Massive Sulphide (SMS). There are other topics; scientific research to find the SMS potential area, development of the survey platforms and environmental assessment. In this paper, I show the overview of the current status of ocean resources exploration technologies in Japan.
