These systems excel in ocean and coastal environments, where understanding water movement is crucial for both scientific research and commercial operations. Marine Measurement ADCPs provide detailed insights into ocean currents, waves, and water column dynamics. They can be deployed in various configurations, from vessel-mounted systems for mobile surveys to bottom-mounted units for long-term observation.
Specifically engineered for inland water applications, these systems tackle the unique challenges of measuring flow in rivers, streams, and reservoirs. They deliver precise discharge measurements crucial for water management, environmental monitoring, and flood prediction. The technology adapts to changing conditions, providing reliable data even in challenging environments like flood events or low-flow situations.
This innovative platform combines our proven ADCP technology with remote-controlled watercraft, enabling safe and efficient measurements in challenging locations. These systems allow operators to collect high-quality data while maintaining a safe distance from dangerous or difficult-to-access waterways.
