Side Scan Sonar Surveys
The Side Scan Sonar generates an acoustic image of the sea floor, which can be used in order to locate wrecks, mapping posidonia, and tracking submerged pipelines, etc. The side scan sonar readings are digitally acquired together with positional data, it is then possible to build a map of the area for investigation thanks to "mosaicking" software.
The equipment in our possession includes:
- Side Scan Sonar dual-frequency (100-500 kHz) Geoacoustics
- Digital-acquisition system
- SWANPRO data-acquisition software (Communication Technology)
- Processing software and mosaicking HYPACK 2009
- 20 Novatel RTK-GPS accuracy 20 cm
- DGPS Ashtech G12-accuracy 0.5m
- No 2 Navigation software: NAVPRO of Communication Technology
- Processing software: 8 SURFER (Golden Software) and Autocad
- Plotter A0 HP 450C.
