Vegetation-classifying Echosounder 21/05/2012
Presented during a preview of an entirely new technology in March at the Oceanology International (OI) exhibition in London, UK, the BioSonics MX Aquatic Habitat Echosounder has been released. It is a complete hardware-software solution for mapping and quantitative assessment of submerged plants, substrate classification, and bathymetry. The MX utilises scientific single beam sonar housed in a rugged Pelican Case with an integrated DGPS and storage for the transducer, cable, and fittings. The MX comes complete with Visual Habitat MX software, a powerful new data processing and visualization tool developed specifically for the MX. »» 0 comment(s)

BlueView Technologies, USA, has updated the operating software for its 2D and 3D sonar systems. ProViewer 3.6 and ProScan 3.6 include multiple updates to improve processing speed and ease of use. The company also is introducing its new 3D point-cloud viewing software, BlueViewer to quickly and easily view the output of BlueView BV5000 3D Multibeam Scanners and MicroBathymetric systems.
Titan Survey’s recent purchase of two further compact CSP-P bang boxes confirms its confidence in the Applied Acoustics’ systems that enable the company to quickly deploy a survey team to any site in the UK and beyond in response to its varied work load. The company has been involved in marine surveys both in the UK and worldwide for over 30 years and is increasingly involved in offshore renewable energy schemes, particularly wind farm projects, where an accurate interrogation of the subsea geology is so crucial to turbine foundation design, as well as route selection for the cabling to shore.
