EdgeTech 6205: Combined Bathymetry and Side Scan Sonar
Unique Group in partnership with EdgeTech supplies EdgeTech 6205 Combined Bathymetry and Sidescan Sonar. The 6205 utilises EdgeTech’s next generation bathymetric technology to provide an enhanced and fully integrated, swath bathymetry and dual frequency side scan sonar system. The 6205, a Multi Phase Echo Sounder (MPES) produces real-time, high resolution, three dimensional (3D) maps of the sea floor while providing co-registered simultaneous dual frequency side scan imagery. It uses ten receive element transducers and one discrete transmit element.
