Features
Swath Bathymetry for high resolution full coverage surveys
Co-registered bathymetry and imagery data sets
Sub-bottom Profiler for subsurface imaging
“See” soil and rock units below the mudline
Single beam echo sounder for cost effective basic surveys
Various vessel types to deploy from:
ConeTec work vessels
Vessels of opportunity
Radio controlled boat for remote access and extreme shallow water surveys
ConeTec portable deployment arm mounted on various vessels
Precision GNSS on board for accurate georeferencing
Advantages
High resolution bathymetry and imagery for small target detection
Much higher resolution and more cost effective than physical point measurements
Rapidly survey large areas
Detection of hazards on the bottom and in the water column
Applications
Bathymetry surveys for water volume estimates
Erosion monitoring and change detection surveys
Pre and post dredging surveys
Pre-drilling baseline data collection
Bottom type mapping: sand, mud, rip-rap, eelgrass
Underwater hazard mapping
Lake bed / sea-bottom stratigraphy (SBP)
Fluid mud volume estimates (SBP)
Buried object detection of linear structures: cables, pipes (SBP)
Mine tailings and industrial pond monitoring and reporting
