Bathymetric survey & Shallow Seismic Survey

Bathymetric survey is the process of mapping underwater terrain to determine the depth and topography of seabeds, riverbeds, lakes, and reservoirs. It is essential for marine construction, dredging operations, port development, navigation safety, and environmental monitoring. Using advanced echo-sounding systems (single-beam or multi-beam), GPS, and positioning technologies, bathymetric surveys produce accurate underwater contour maps and 3D models.
 

Key aspects include:

 

  • Measurement of water depths and seabed profiles
  • Use of single-beam and multi-beam echo sounders
  • Support for dredging, harbor maintenance, and offshore structures
  • Integration with GPS for accurate positioning
  • Generation of underwater topographic maps and digital terrain models
  • Ideal for coastal, riverine, and inland water body surveys
