Underwater Feature & Obstruction Detection

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Overview & Capabilities

Obstruction & Debris Mapping: Scanning target seafloor areas to locate submerged shipwrecks, fallen structures, dropped objects, and navigational hazards.

Subsea Infrastructure Verification: Identifying and precisely mapping exposed pipelines, subsea power cables, wellheads, and underwater structural components.

Site Clearance & Navigation Audits: Conducting high-density acoustic sweeps to verify clear seabed corridors prior to dredging, anchoring, or construction operations.

Target Classification & Hazard Analysis: Analyzing acoustic signatures and magnetic anomalies to classify target sizes, burial depths, and potential operational risks.
