Hydrographic Survey

Bathymetric surveys allow us to measure the depth of a water body as well as map the underwater features of a water body. Multiple methods can be used for bathymetric surveys including multi-beam and single-beam surveys, ADCPs, sub-bottom profilers, and the Ecomapper Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

Echo sounding is a technique for measuring water depths by transmitting acoustic pulses from the ocean surface and listening for their reflection (or echo) from the sea floor. Echo sounding is done either by a single beam or multi-beam echo sounder. Single beam echo sounders make a single depth measurement with each acoustic pulse (or ping) and include both wide and narrow beam systems. A multi-beam echo sounder is an instrument that can map more than one location on the ocean floor with a single ping and with higher resolution than those of conventional echo sounders. Effectively, the job of a narrow single-beam echo sounder is performed at several different locations on the sea bottom at once. Our experienced survey team offers both single and multi beam bathymetric surveys across UAE.

Bathymetric Survey

Bathymetric surveys are essential for understanding underwater topography and ensuring the safety of maritime operations. Our services include:

• Detailed Seafloor Mapping: Using modern sonar technology, we create accurate maps of the underwater landscape, identifying depths, slopes, and any obstructions.
• Project Support: Bathymetric data is crucial for construction projects such as port developments, dredging, and offshore installations, ensuring they are built on a solid foundation.
• Environmental Monitoring: Our surveys are also used for environmental assessments, helping to monitor changes in the seafloor and aquatic ecosystems over time.

Survey in Tidal Areas

Surveys in tidal areas require a deep understanding of water movement and its impact on coastal structures and ecosystems. Our expertise in tidal surveys includes:

• Tide-Adjusted Mapping: We accurately measure and adjust for tidal variations, ensuring that our data reflects real-world conditions, which is crucial for harbor management and coastal engineering projects.
• Shoreline and Coastal Assessments: Tidal area surveys are vital for understanding coastal erosion, sediment movement, and flood risk, helping to inform coastal defense and management strategies.
• Precise Planning for Marine Construction: We support construction projects such as bridges, piers, and other marine structures by providing essential data on water levels and tidal fluctuations.
