Description-
Hydrographic
survey is a process used to measure and describe the bodily features
of oceans, seas coastal areas, lakes and rivers. The equipments which
are required to do such surveys are known as hydrographic equipments.
The main goal of hydrographic surveys is to ensure safe maritime
navigation. Sometimes the term hydrographic surveys and maritime
cartography are used synonymously; however maritime cartography is
the final process of hydrographic surveys and is used to convert the
raw data collected in hydrographic surveys to pull out some useful
information. Hydrographic surveys are done under some rules which may
vary according to the accepting authority. In hydrographic surveys
measuring depth is not as difficult as compared to knowing how far
the survey boat is from the coast when the depth is measured.
The
hydrographic equipment earlier consist primarily of a GPS (Global
Positioning System) with a built in radio and Omni directional
antenna, a Helmsman display for navigation, dual frequency depth
sounder, a computer, a plotter, and a hydrographic system software
for underwater data collection. An onboard generator is used to
supply power for the equipment. The shore equipments include a GPS
(Global Positioning System) receiver of same type. The Global
Positioning system and the antenna are placed over a survey tripod.
Due to vast area of sea, radio boosters are used to boost the signal
strength. The Global Positioning System is connected to the
satellites for receiving information.
The
modern surveying relies more on the software than hardware. In
shallow water areas echo sounders such as LIDAR (Light Detection and
Ranging) and SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging) are used with
equipments placed on Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and
Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) to conduct hydrographic survey.
Data collected is stored and processed in computer for use in
navigational charts, digital terrain model, topographic measurements
and bathymetry. Data collected should be free from errors and is
displayed as the charts which are made by using special CAD (Computer
Aided Design) software such as AutoCAD. The use of hydrographic
surveys is to measure the information related to maritime navigation,
marine construction, dredging, offshore oil exploration/drilling
related activities, maritime engineering, and harbor management. In
these surveys a strong emphasis is given to find information related
to shorelines, tides, currents, seabed depth and submerged
obstruction that may affect the maritime navigation.
Increasing
prices of oil and gas due to high demand, safety concerns among the
sailors and shipping companies, government policies encouraging oil
and gas explorations, advancements in hydrographic equipment
technology are likely to drive the hydrographic equipment market in
near future. Cost associated with carrying the hydrographic surveys
and time taken to conduct hydrographic can act as the main restraint
to the potential growth of hydrographic equipment market. Being an
uncontested sector with high rewards the opportunities in
hydrographic equipment markets are forecasted to be good in near
future.
Some
of the key players in Hydrographic Equipment market are Valeport,
Seafloor Systems, Kongsberg Maritime AS, Hydro International,
Teledyne Marine and Raytheon Company.
