SR-Surveyor M1.8

Autonomous hydrographic Survey System

The SR-Surveyor M1.8 is a highly capable man-portable autonomous hydrographic survey vessel. It is tightly integrated with multiple high-resolution hydrographic sensors and a topographical mapping LiDAR. It’s unique sensor suite make it a versatile system for collecting a wide range of hydrographic data in inland and coastal waters. It’s small form factor, light weight, and extremely shallow draft allow it to be rapidly deployed to difficult to access areas.

This system is used for:

• Shallow water hydrographic surveys (less than 50
meters water depth)
• Benthic habitat mapping
• Nautical charting
• Military rapid environmental assessments (REA)
• Route surveys
• Dredging operations
• Marine debris search
• Port & harbor security
• Infrastructure inspection
• Scour surveys
• Bridge inspection
• Pipeline survey
• Stream gauging
• Volumetric discharge measurement
• Plume detection
• Search & rescue

Sensors on board:

The EdgeTech 2205 and AML MicroSV are part of the base
boat. An SBG INS must be selected as a required option.
The other items can be purchased as options and added
to the vehicle at any time.
• EdgeTech 2205 dual sidescan/bathy multi-phase
echosounder
• AML MicroSV sound velocity sensor
• SBG dual antenna inertial navigation system (INS)
(select Ellipse, Ekinox or Apogee)
• Sontek M9 acoustic doppler current profiler
(ADCP)
• Velodyne PUCK 16 channel mapping LiDAR
