Underwater vehicle (10) for navigating relative to a structure 11 submerged in a body of water. The vehicle (10) includes a body (12) defining a peripheral region (14), one or more drive mechanisms (16), and a plurality of imaging modules (18) carried by the body (12) to face away from the peripheral region (14). The plurality of imaging modules (18) are configured to operate concurrently to allow imaging at least partially about at least two of a front (20), opposed sides (22, 24), top (34) and bottom (35) of the body (12). The vehicle (10) also includes a controller (26) communicatively coupled with the imaging modules (18) and the drive mechanisms (16), and configured to control operation of the drive mechanisms (16) to navigate the vehicle (10) about the structure based on images captured by the imaging modules (18).
