Current Profiler Boost For Ports And Terminals31/03/2009 |
| Many new oceanographic product developments have emerged from the Bergen base of Aanderaa Data Instruments (AADI) over the last two years. The expanding usage of the RDCP600 Doppler current profiler for ship berthing applications is notable. A surface tracking feature, whereby vertical measuring zones (bins) can always be referenced to height below the surface, makes the RDCP600 suited for port, terminal and dockyard type installations where reference to vessel draft is essential. |

In support of the RDCP600, but also applicable to other AADI products such as the Seaguard RCM single point current meter, is new browser based, real-time Data Display Software which provides the data user with a complete picture of the tidal current status along with third party information if required.
The AADI Optode Dissolved Oxygen sensor which has found enormous favour with ocean researchers, water producers and aqua culturists alike, is now available is a fast response version.
Aanderaa will host a vessel based deployment demonstration of the Seaguard RCM on the Wednesday morning, and will hold classroom based workshops on their new Wave and Tide sensor (Tuesday), SeaGuard & Smart sensors (Weds) and their Met-Hydro Databuoy (Thurs).

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.
