NORBIT Sub-Bottom Profiler (iSBP)

Compact sub-bottom profiler integrated with WINGHEAD X and WBMS X multibeams, mapping seafloor and sediment layers in one georeferenced workflow.

Description

The iSBP is a compact, portable sub-bottom profiler that integrates with NORBIT's WINGHEAD X and WBMS X multibeam echo sounders. Bathymetric and sub-bottom data are acquired in a single georeferenced workflow, so the seafloor and the underlying sediment layers can be mapped simultaneously. The iSBP and the WINGHEAD each need only one cable connection to the SIU.
