Further Information

The Survey Head FOUR is equipped with a Multi-beam echo sounder, a subbottom profiler and a rotatable camera. It offers a full sensor suite for advanced survey tasks.

The system consists of:

A NORBIT Wide Band Multi-beam System (WBMS) - a compact high resolution wide-swath multi-beam sonar
An ATLAS IP Camera, specifically built for deep water operation, that combines high resolution HD video with great light sensitivity.
A Tritech Parametric Sub-Bottom Profiler that allows for a raw 200kHz seabed profile, as well as 20kHz subbottom layers produced by the parametric pulse.
A connecting port for the G 882 Marine Magnetometer of Geometrics
The additional sensor can be towed behind the AUV and completes the subbottom survey capabilities of this advanced SwapHead
