MVP30 for Ocean Surveys

  14/10/2009
Ocean Surveys Inc, USA, has placed an order for an ODIM MVP30 moving vessel profiling system. OSI provides industry and government with a technical expertise to acquire and interpret scientific data from both marine and freshwater environments. Their range of capabilities include hydrographic, oceanographic and limnologic, geophysical and geotechnical survey services. The ODIM MVP30 will be in OSI's hydrographic programme to acquire water column sound speed profiles for calibration of multibeam survey data.
 

 

The ODIM MVP30 is a light-weight electrical winch used for the collection of real-time and continuous sound speed profile information for ocean mapping purposes. The ODIM MVP is a self-contained, semi-autonomous device, which collects oceanographic data while the vessel is underway. The sound velocity profiler system includes a computer controlled winch and deployment system for a variety of the free-fall sensor systems.

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
