SWATHplus Sonar
SWATHplus
is a wide swath sonar system for surveying underwater
surfaces. It acquires high density bathymetry and sidescan
data. Processed data output includes Digital Terrain Models
and sidescan images. It is equally well suited for use at
sea, and for inland waterways and lakes. SWATHplus surveys
to water depths of 350 metres. It is particularly efficient
in shallow water, and is low-cost, compared with similar
sonar systems. |
Advantages of
SWATHplus include:
-
Very wide swath width, especially in shallow
water, giving excellent survey
productivity. Ratios of swath width to water depth typically
exceed 15:1,
rising to over 20:1 in less than 10m depth.
-
Portability: the system is small, light (<5kg
for the 468kHz version), and
consumes little power (<15W apart from the computer).
|
 |
-
High Resolution and Accuracy: the system
records many more data points than competing technology,
whilst maintaining survey accuracy to international
standards, including IHO S44 Special Order. SWATHplus can be
configured to ping simultaneously on both sides, thus
doubling survey productivity in comparison to similar
systems.
-
Simultaneous Side Scan: SWATHplus produces
sidescan imaging data of a quality on a par with any
sidescan-only system, co-registered with the bathymetry.
-
Imaging Mid-water Objects and Structures:
SWATHplus can detect objects in mid-water and on the
surface, as well as the bottom.
-
Cost of Ownership: system simplicity results
in a low initial purchase price,
high reliability, simple maintenance and long service life
