Historical application record

Bridge-Pier Multibeam Survey in Jiujiang

Jiujiang, China

Survey task
Survey the underwater bridge-pier area and riverbed approximately 200 m upstream and downstream of Jiujiang Second Yangtze River Bridge.
System configuration
iPos MS11 · iBeam8120 · Swiftsvp sound velocity profiler
In the record
Measured sensor offsets, installation calibration and cross-sections accompany the 3D point cloud around pier 22.

Field demonstration

Multibeam Survey Field Demonstration in Bangkok

Bangkok, Thailand

Survey task
Demonstrate a combined navigation and multibeam survey workflow in a Bangkok harbour basin, from installation and calibration to acquisition and terrain review.
System configuration
iPos MS11 · iBeam8120 multibeam system
In the record
Calibration profiles, 3D terrain outputs and a reciprocal-line consistency check document the measurement workflow.

The field record describes RaysenNav participation in installation, commissioning and workflow demonstrations.
