Services
Multibeam Charting
Our multibeam charting services utilize advanced sonar technology to create detailed underwater topographic maps. We process data from multiple manufacturers' systems to produce accurate bathymetric charts meeting IHO standards. This service supports dredging projects, pipeline route planning, and marine infrastructure development through precise depth measurements and seabed analysis.
Lidar Surveying
We operate Leica Chiroptera II and HawkEye III lidar systems for simultaneous topographic and bathymetric data collection. Our 17 years of experience enables seamless land-water elevation modeling using four-band imagery. This service provides high-resolution elevation data for coastal zone management, floodplain mapping, and infrastructure planning applications requiring vertical accuracy.
Workflow Design
Our team develops customized data processing workflows that automate repetitive tasks while maintaining quality control checkpoints. We integrate GIS, CAD, and specialized software to streamline large dataset management. This service reduces processing time by up to 40% while ensuring consistent output quality across diverse sensor data formats and project requirements.
Cable Route Mapping
We provide comprehensive charting solutions for telecommunications and power cable installations. Our services include pre-survey background charts, real-time vessel charting, and final as-laid documentation. We combine multibeam bathymetry with geophysical data to identify optimal routes and potential hazards for projects ranging from 25km island links to transoceanic routes.
Data Processing
We transform raw sensor data into actionable deliverables including digital elevation models, orthomosaics, and GIS layers. Our processing capabilities handle datasets from multiple sources simultaneously, maintaining consistent vertical datums across land-water interfaces. We produce standardized formats like S-57 files and customized visualizations for coastal modeling and resource management applications.
