Monitor and record node/receiver position:

• The position tolerance is no more than 5 (five) meters (or as per acquisition contract specifications) from the pre-plot node location unless the pre-plot node location falls into one of the following criteria:
• The pre-plot node location is in a defined exclusion zone from a seafloor or water column obstruction including but not limited to mooring anchors, well heads, pipelines and cables.
