Through the MiniBAT control software the tow body can be set to undulate over a desired depth range, maintain a constant depth, and can even be programmed to follow the seabed with MiniBAT automatically altering its depth. These features make MiniBAT adaptable to a wide range of applications and situations, including estuaries, rivers, lakes, and coastal areas.
MiniBAT's lightweight construction means that it is easily deployed by one person from almost any kind of vessel.

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.
