HYDROSURVEYOR

HYDROSURVEYOR

The Hydrosurveyor Is a System Designed to Collect Bathymetric, Water Column Velocity Profile, and Acoustic Bottom Tracking Data as Part of a Hydrographic Survey

The two key components of the system are the HydroSurveyor Acoustic Doppler Profiler (ADP®) platform, and the powerful, yet user-friendly, data collection software.

Description

With the HydroSurveyor platform, SonTek is able to offer an exclusive 5-beam depth sounding device, with built-in navigation, full water column velocity (currents) profiling, full compensation for speed of sound (with the CastAway-CTD), and integrated positioning solution.
