Ørsted, PGE Offer Look Into Future of Offshore Surveying
U.S. marine robotics company Ocean Infinity has completed an offshore wind farm survey for Ørsted and PGE in the Polish sector of the Baltic Sea, using lean crewed vessel and real-time remote data management.The project team based in Ocean Infinity’s operations centre in Gothenburg, used a multi-beam echo sounder (MBES) and 3D multi-channel ultra-high resolution seismic (3D-UHRS) equipment deployed from an Ocean Infinity Armada lean crewed vessel over 540 km to identify sub-surface boulders in support of the Baltica 2 project installation campaign for wind turbines and offshore substation
Echoexplore 4 aims to Simplify Hydroacoustic Data Management
Echoview Software releases Echoexplore 4 a tool which aims to help catalogue large numbers of hydroacoustic files effortlessly. To do this, Echoexplore identifies compatible echosounder and sonar data files on a local computer or local network, extracts metadata, and then creates a spatial catalog that allows users to browse the data that has been located. Whether searching for specific hydroacoustic data sets, sorting and browsing through lists or maps, or filtering based on parameters like geographical position, date, time, hardware model, pulse duration, transmitted power and more, Echoexplore
