C3D

The C3D system combines high resolution imagery and wide swath bathymetry for bottom mapping, image interpretation, and a 3-dimensional look at the seafloor.  It represents the latest in sonar imaging with patented technology under license from Simon Fraser University for a technique called CAATI (Computed Angle of Arrival Transient Imaging).  This technique incorporates a multi-array transducer and is capable of solving for multiple angles-of-arrival, resulting in a more detailed view of the seafloor.

The C3D system provides efficiencies for surveyors by offering a wider swath and the combination of both imagery and bathymetry in one sensor.  The system is ideal for fisheries habitat mapping, port and harbor clearance, coastal studies, deep ocean mapping, cable route surveys, and mine countermeasures.
