Applications

Sonars for Marine Construction

Before any type of marine construction can begin, engineers and builders need accurate information on water depth. As construction gets underway and continues, they need ongoing data to ensure the infrastructure is being built according to plans.

After construction, they then must ensure the construction meets design and safety standards. Surveys are also a critical part of preventive maintenance and any repair work, and R2Sonic Sonars for marine construction provide that data.

Industry Needs

R2Sonic marine sonar technology enables faster, cleaner, and more accurate data, from planning to finish and beyond, of any building project.

In particular, optional Forward Looking Sonar (FLS), Dual Frequency Mode, Ultra High Density (UHD), Ultra High Resolution (UHR), and single frequency TruePix® are designed specifically for marine construction work.
