HydroRANGER
The Ultimate Shore-Monitoring System
The HydroRANGER is an evolution of mapping technology. This airborne topo-bathymetric (ATB) system provides dual purpose topographic and bathymetric measurements for full scene mapping of shoreline systems. The HydroRANGER uses a green light laser (532 nm) with online waveform processing for topographic, water surface and subsurface target mapping.
Description
The HydroRANGER is an evolution of mapping technology. This Airborne Topo-Bathymetric (ATB) system provides dual purpose topographic and bathymetric measurements for full scene mapping of shoreline systems. Utilizing a visible green spectrum laser with an elliptical scan pattern and measurement rates up to 200 kHz, the HydroRANGER provides a combination of high spatial resolution and spatial accuracy. Capable of reaching beyond 2 Secchi depths, this is the ideal solution for mapping land-water interface environments along rivers, reservoirs, oceans and more!

-
Green light laser (532 nm) with online waveform processing for topographic, water surface and subsurface target mapping.
-
Elliptical scan pattern provides a +/- 20-degree horizontal FOV for low angle of incident measurements.
-
High quality 24 MP camera enables RGB colourization and orthophotography
-
Configurable beam divergence and receiver FOV for low AGL missions.
