SonTek HydroSurveyor™ Hydrographic Surveying Software and ADCP
The Practical Solution to Velocity, Position, and Depth Measurement
SonTek HydroSurveyorTM - The practical solution to velocity, position and depth measurement with exclusive 5-beam depth sounding technology.
- Full water column velocity mapping
- Sound speed integration and interpolation (with SonTek CastAway-CTD)
- Speed over ground (Acoustic Bottom Tracking)
- 5-beam depth soundings (50° swath)
- Water column velocity (currents) mapping
The SonTek HydroSurveyorTM 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 SonTek HydroSurveyor Acoustic Doppler Profiler (ADP®) platform, and the powerful, yet user-friendly, data collection software.
