Echologger APIs
The Echologger EU400/EU200 proudly stands out as a USB-interfaced professional echosounder, designed exclusively for accurate depth measurement in professional bathymetric surveys. Its USB interface capabilities not only make it a versatile tool but also facilitate seamless data transfer, enhancing overall survey precision. This echosounder finds its application in a variety of scenarios, notably excelling in professional bathymetric surveys where precise depth measurement is paramount. Additionally, its adaptability for deployment on Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs) or drones adds versatility to its utility.
In parallel, the ECT400/ECT200 series distinguishes itself as one of the most compact and lightest precision echosounders, featuring serial interfaces (RS232/485) for added versatility. Tailored for accurate depth measurement, this series proves to be an optimal choice for various bathymetric survey applications. Its lightweight design ensures ease of handling, making it well-suited for applications where space and weight considerations are crucial. This series, too, can be deployed on USVs or drones, expanding its applications in sediment studies and precision depth measurements.
Both series share a crucial feature – the ability to acquire acoustic backscatter data along the full water columns. This capability ensures a comprehensive understanding of underwater environments, allowing professionals to gather detailed information for a range of applications. From mapping underwater terrain to conducting precise inspections and sediment studies, these echosounders prove to be reliable tools in the hands of professionals navigating the complexities of underwater environments.
