High-Resolution Mapping of Shallow and Coastal Waters
We provide accurate and efficient measurement of underwater terrain, shorelines, riverbeds, seabeds, and shallow-water environments. Using advanced airborne LiDAR technology, we collect detailed elevation and depth data across large and difficult-to-access areas.
Bathymetric LiDAR is a remote-sensing technology that uses laser pulses to measure both the water surface and underwater ground levels. The system typically uses green laser wavelengths that can penetrate clear water, allowing survey teams to create detailed maps of shallow coastal and inland water environments.
Support the design, construction, and maintenance of ports, harbours, seawalls, breakwaters, marine terminals, and coastal protection systems.
What areas can Bathymetric LiDAR survey?
Bathymetric LiDAR is particularly useful when the survey area is extensive, shallow, remote, environmentally sensitive, or difficult to access using conventional survey boats. It can cover both land and water within one coordinated survey, creating a continuous representation of the coastal or inland environment.
Survey depth depends on water clarity, weather, sensor specifications, and bottom conditions. Clear water generally allows better laser penetration than turbid or sediment-rich water.
Benefits of Dredging and Reclamation Monitoring
Rapid coverage of large survey areas, Safe data collection without placing personnel in the water, Accurate land and underwater elevation data, Effective mapping of shallow and inaccessible areas, High-resolution seabed and shoreline information, Reduced environmental disturbance, Efficient repeat surveys for change detection, Integration with GIS, CAD, and 3D modelling platforms
Whether you require a river survey, seabed map, dredging calculation, or marine construction survey, our USV bathymetric surveying solutions provide accurate, safe, and cost-effective results.
