Hydro Survey

Within Infinity’s advanced measurements toolbox, the firm has remotely operated equipment to perform hydro survey services on project sites. Infinity’s hydro survey equipment has the ability to measure bathymetry, the mapping of water bottoms.

Infinity uses state-of-the-art equipment for taking measurements, using a RTK rover in conjunction with a transducer/fathometer which provides accurate, georeferenced readings of water bottom elevations. The data collected can be exported as a point file to be used in generating contour lines for harbor plans or a 3D mesh for volume calculations.

Our equipment is unique in that it is remotely controlled and unmanned. The drone boat is small and compact and can be mobilized quickly and efficiently in practically any body of water without the need for a launch or ramp. Because it is unmanned, our operators do not have to enter the water, which eliminates inherent risks to personnel that would otherwise be working on a boat.

Used in combination with our laser scanning capabilities, Infinity can provide our clients with a fully integrated GPS map of a site both above ground and underwater.
