Vessel Measure-Ups
Integrating hydrographic survey equipment begins with the initial installation and setup. Professional installation ensures longevity of cabling and hardware, maximizing your financial investment. Whether outfitting a small survey boat or a complex barge-mounted system, our technicians meticulously measure and document the vessel's physical dimensions and layout. They then locate the mounting points and sensor positions, relative to the vessel, to ensure a seamless installation process. This measure-up procedure optimizes the performance of your equipment, enabling you to provide the best deliverables possible.
System Installation
Measutronics brings in-depth technical expertise to install a wide range of hydrographic surveying systems from leading, field-proven brands. This ensures data collected by sonar and other survey instruments is correctly georeferenced by the vessel's true position and orientation. Our professional installation services eliminate some of the most common sources of error, such as misaligned sensors or offset calculations — ensuring your project is up and running expeditiously and your equipment is working up to specifications.
Let our team ensure every component is properly configured for optimal performance. We expertly install the following hydrographic surveying equipment and other imaging technology:
- Single beam sonar systems
- Side-scan sonar systems
- Multibeam sonar systems
- Mechanically scanning sonar systems
- Marine laser scanners and LiDARs
Precise Calibration and Fine-Tuning
Even the most advanced hydrographic equipment is only as good as its calibration. Once installed, we offer meticulous calibration and fine-tuning solutions for every system integrated. Depending on your vessel, our services may include:
- Aligning sensors
- Setting reference points
- Environmental and vessel-specific adjustments
- Patch testing
- Performance verification
Our calibration and fine-tuning services help ensure that the hydrographic equipment on your vessel delivers trustworthy, quality data for confident decision-making in the field. Our installations include a written report capturing all pertinent offsets, communications settings and other pertinent details.
Operator Training for Survey Equipment
Measutronics provides operator training to help your team utilize cutting-edge positioning, sonar, and imaging equipment. In addition to practical instruction delivered on-site at project startup or remotely as required, our regularly scheduled courses help operators master the skills they need to integrate these advanced technologies into their workflow.
Why Integrated Hydrographic Survey Equipment Matters for Marine Operations
The marine construction and dredging sectors rely heavily on advanced hydrographic equipment. Integrated sonar and 3D imaging systems are indispensable tools, empowering both operators and managers to achieve project success and offering numerous advantages to maritime projects, including:
- Operational efficiency: Real-time guidance, powered by sonar and 3D imaging data, enables crews to make immediate adjustments based on live scans. This minimizes guesswork and optimizes project considerations like equipment usage and vessel movement.
- Improved compliance: Precise information helps ensure work is performed to project specifications, allowing teams to meet regulatory requirements and reducing the risk of costly rework.
- Reduced rework: Timely validation data minimizes the need for repeat surveys or corrective actions to keep projects on schedule.
