1.
Traditional hydrographic survey compared to infrastructure surveys
� To make hydrographic charts you don´t use all information you can get
from MBES surveys
� To study objects and bottom formations you need to use all benefits of
MBES survey technology
� To get good underwater picture of your quay walls and another
underwater infrastructure you need to use all benefits of MBES survey
technology
� Software typically used for sounding charts (like AutoCad, Microstation
etc.) cannot handle all data available from MBES technology
Port of Rauma
� Around 3,4 km of quay walls in total� Around 30m wide strip of seabed to
be surveyed� Report is based on visual inspection
of post-processed data by engineers
ANALYZE AND REPORTING
1. Underwater objects 2. Scouring, sedimentation 3. Structures
