Hydrographic Survey – Underwater Investigation – Bottom Characterization


Bottom Characterization

Understanding the bottom of a harbor, channel, or berth can directly impact waterfront design and construction efforts. It is particularly important to designing and managing dredging projects where the difference between dredge material types could amount to a difference of $50.00 to $75.00 or more per cubic yard.

SeaVision seeks to assist its clients in better understanding the character of the bottom and the subsurface so that these projects can accommodate existing conditions. Our approach is to draw upon remote sensing and sampling techniques depending on the requirements of the project. Whether a project simply needs sediment sampling for laboratory analysis or an integrated sampling and mapping solution, SeaVision can work with its clients to develop a strategy that can be comprised of any of the following services:
 
  • Hydrographic Surveys
  • Sidescan Sonar Surveys
  • Bottom Sampling (including Vibracore Sampling)
  • Sediment Core Logging / Sediment Mapping
  • Benthic Habitat Mapping
  • Underwater Photography / Video
