Marine Surveys

Hydrographic survey

Hydrographic surveys are carried out using a range of current meters (ADCP, Aquadopp, AWAC). In addition to providing data on current speed and direction we are also able to measure wave height and direction. We have a fully supported hydrographic service including:

  • deployment and retrieval (including vessel if required)
  • data analysis
  • reporting

We can also carry out analysis and reporting on existing hydrographic data.
