Open-source Software for Environmental Science Community

oceanographic data variability in order to better understand military sonar performance in complex underwater environments. RTS has engaged with the Defense Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) and Royal Navy staff to present the software capabilities and discuss uses. The web application software architecture separates data access and manipulation from data visualization, allowing devices running only a web browser to rapidly interact with data handled on a server or desktop PC over a network. Benefits of this approach include the potential for powerful data visualization and

New Temperature-Depth Recorder

meter. Depth accuracy is better than +/-0.3 percent of full range, for example +/-0.3 meters if using the 100 meter pressure sensor. Temperature accuracy is +/-0.025°C. The large memory size can store 8.4 million temp-depth recordings. The sampling interval is user programmable in the application software. The robust housing is designed to make it easy to mount to gear or moorings

Kraken Debuts New Sonar Platform KATFISH

Ethernet network interface. The sonar operation is controlled from a graphical user interface (GUI) on a notebook computer. The operator sets the sonar parameters in the sonar control window, while depth, imagery and other sensor data are captured and displayed by Kraken’s INSIGHT application software. According to the developer, KATFISH sonar is based upon a robust and proven design and is suited for a variety of underwater imaging missions. It’s the latest embodiment of Kraken’s sonar imaging expertise that enables a sophisticated system that can generate and process

Kraken Develops AquaPix MINSAS

a Gigabit Ethernet network interface. The sonar operation is controlled from a graphical user interface (GUI) on a notebook computer. The operator sets the sonar parameters in the sonar control window, while depth, imagery and other sensor data are captured and displayed by Kraken’s INSIGHT application software. Other features and capabilities of the AquaPix MINSAS include: -Ultra-high resolution - 3cm across entire swath -Swath widths of up to 500m -Superior area coverage rate -Nadir gap filler with SAS resolution -Innovative multipath suppression -Real time SAS image processor -SAS
