| Are heave, pitch and roll corrections included? |
Heave included; pitch and roll via data acquisition software |
| Capable of being operated remotely (e.g. via PC) |
Operated by PC with ATLAS DESO CONTROL |
| Supported external data inputs (heave/roll/pitch, positioning) |
DGPS, heave |
| Can events and annotations be marked? |
Yes |
| Can sound velocity and temperature profiles be included in real time ? |
Yes |
| Is real-time coupling to survey/post-processing software possible? |
Yes |
| What data are displayed in real time (e.g. depth, classification, thickness)? |
Digital depth and whole water column including sub-bottom layer |
| Data output options (e.g. raw data, transducer and motion-corrected depth, sea floor classification) |
Depth data and whole water column echogram; sea floor classification in post-processing |
| Data output formats |
NMEA 0183, ATLAS DESO 25 |
| Data output for sea floor classification? |
This is realised in our ATLAS DESO 3xx series echosounders by means of an evaluation of the echo reception amplitude inside the ATLAS DESO CONTROL sensor steering and control software. It does not output information about the bottom type itself. This has to be part of a third-party software such as QTC Impact & View |
| How are data displayed? |
Digital via ATLAS DESO CONTROL |
| Connection possibilities |
RS232, RS422, LAN |
| How are data internally logged? |
Hard disk |
| Main use of the system |
Inland waterway, coastal and offshore surveying |
