It is well understood that any underwater threat, whether real or perceived, would cause major disruptions to port activities as well as create unacceptable harm to our economy. Use of the side scan sonar's on a continual basis in harbours is one more tool in keeping waterways and ports open.

Hydrographic Survey of Riverbed Erosion |
Members of the US Geological Survey were filmed while out on the Missouri River at Williston, North Dakota, USA, performing a hydrographic survey to monitor the state of riverbed erosion. They were using a multibeam echo sounder which transmits sound energy and analyses the return signal (echo) that has bounced off the riverbed or other objects. Multibeam sonars emit sound waves from directly beneath a ship's hull to produce fan-shaped coverage of the riverbed.
