Side-scan for Two USACE Districts
International Industries and EdgeTech Marine (USA) have taken orders for model 4125 side-scan sonar this month from two US Army Corps of Engineers Districts:Seattle, Washington District and Norfolk, Virginia District
These systems bring a new wave of expertise into the USACE Hydrographic efforts for high frequency, shallow water. The EdgeTech side-scan sonar provide a unique advantage over the conventional, heavy weight, deep side-scan sonar by combining EdgeTechs' very high frequency with simultaneous dual frequency recording technologies into a very light weight unit.
EdgeTech engineering has produced many new side-scan sonar of late including the 4125 (400/1250 kHz) low cost, digital telemetry system for harbour security and Search & Rescue (SAR); and the 4700-DFX Focused Multi-pulse side-scan sonar. These sonar are expected to be utilised by a large portion of the industry worldwide.
