Echo Sounder & USV (Unmanned Surface Vehicle) Technology in Hydrographic and Bathymetric Surveying

An Echo Sounder is a marine navigation instrument equipped with SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging) technology. It transmits sound waves from the sea surface toward the seabed; these waves then reflect off the bottom and are received by a transducer mounted on the vessel. Functions and Applications of an Echo Sounder:– Measuring water depth– Seafloor […]

Automatic Level / Waterpass

Automatic Level / Waterpass adalah alat ukur yang dipergunakan untuk mengukur beda tinggi antara titik-titik saling berdekatan. Beda tinggi tersebut ditentukan dengan garis-garis visir (sumbu teropong) horizontal yang ditunjukan ke rambu-rambu ukur yang vertical. Pengukuran waterpass adalah pengukuran untuk menentukan ketinggian atau beda tinggi antara dua titik. Pengukuran waterpass ini sangat penting gunanya untuk mendapatkan […]
