Hydrographic Surveying

Service Fact :

Topographic surveyors measure and map the shape, contour, and location of land features such as valleys, mountains, and man-made objects on the surface of the land and below bodies of water. Underwater topographic surveying is known as hydrography.

Hydrographic surveying is the creation of maps of the bottom of rivers, lakes, and oceans using tools such as GPS and sonar soundings. The data is collected by a surveying team aboard a boat and then processed into a readable map by a drafter in AutoCAD notating the depth elevations of recorded locations and also the notation of specific submerged characteristics or vessels.

The resulting maps are used to aid in maritime navigation, scientific research, sports, and mineral exploration. Additionally hydrographic surveys are sometimes called in after disasters at sea to locate wreckage.
