Usv Survey Catamaran

Innomar's parametric sub-bottom profilers are often used in shallow and extremely shallow waters with limited acces for vessels and boats. To support such surveys Innomar offers a remotely operated survey catamaran which can be used to survey a pre-defined area automatically or to work in protected areas like drinking-water reservoirs.

This unmanned surface vehicle (USV) acts as stable pltform for a variety of equipment like sub-bottom profilers, ADCP, MBES or sidescan sonars.

The design of the Innomar-USV is based on a predecessor which was used in many in- and near-shore surveys for about 10 years. Newly developed propulsion will give outstanding performance and a new control concept will ease handling and operation of the equipment. There are two payload containers with a volume of about 50 liters each within the hulls. The total payload capacity is about 100kg.
