Underwater Equipment in Action

  09/03/2009
The MacArtney Underwater Technology Group will be conducting live demonstrations of ROV, underwater camera and sonar equipment at the Ocean Business exhibition in April - with presentations at dockside, in the classroom and on the exhibition stand.
 

 

The MacArtney Underwater Technology Group will be showcasing various types of equipment at the upcoming Ocean Business 2009 exhibition in Southampton. At the dockside, visitors will be able to see first hand a working ROV with underwater cameras and sonar equipment, with multiplexer and visual display topside and experts on hand to explain the systems and to answer questions.

 

In the classroom, two of MacArtney's global experts will present the Nexus fibre optic telemetry system and the DIDSON sonar system concept. They will also be available to answer questions.

 

Throughout the exhibition, MacArtney specialists will be on hand to talk about the group's underwater technology system capabilities on stand B1. They will be showing the Focus ROTV survey system plus ocean science sensors and MaccaM on the Nexus system.

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. 


Gauge height at the Williston gauge was approximately 27.65 feet when this video was taken. Additional information about the USGS streamgauge at Williston is available at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nd/nwis?program=nwisman&site_no=06330000
