YSI Equipment
Remote & autonomous survey vehicles
Remote and autonomous surface vehicles and a compact AUV carrying EXO sondes and SonTek sensors for water quality, bathymetry, current and discharge surveys.
Description
YSI survey vehicle platforms carry YSI EXO sondes and SonTek acoustic sensors to collect water quality, velocity, flow, bathymetry and photogrammetry data in a single mission. Applications range from environmental research and reservoir management to search and recovery missions.
Vehicles
- rQPOD: compact, lightweight remote-controlled or autonomous surface vehicle with motor propulsion; deployable by one operator; at 2-3 knots it can cover over a hundred acres per day at a single depth
- Surfbee ASV: lightweight autonomous surface vehicle with rugged inflatable hulls, dual-GNSS and precision thrusters
- EcoMapper Nano AUV: compact autonomous underwater vehicle that maps water quality and can descend vertically through the water column
Options
- Side scan sonar
- Doppler velocity logs
Applications
- Bathymetric and hydrographic survey
- Water quality mapping in estuaries, lakes, reservoirs and canals
