Xylem Inc. (USA) has acquired substantially all of the assets of HYPACK, Inc., effective 22 October 2015. HYPACK's expertise in hydrographic survey data acquisition, processing and visualisation software will complement Xylem's capabilities in Ocean and Coastal analytics and applications. Harold Orlinsky will continue as the general manager of HYPACK. Pat Sanders will continue to play a prominent role in the business, serving as a technical and marketing consultant and Lourdes Evans will continue as sales manager.
