6205 NEXT GENERATION SWATH BATHYMETRY & SIDE SCAN SONAR - 1

6205 S NEXT GENERATION SWATH BATHYMETRY & SIDE SCAN SONAR FEATURES & BENEFITS • Next generation MPES technology • Unrivaled swath coverage in shallow water when compared to other single head systems • Co-registered dual frequency side scan and single frequency bathymetry with full nadir coverage • Superior multipath rejection • IHO SP-44 Special Order compliant • Swath sectors of up to 200° • Equidistant and Equiangle output options • Comes with EdgeTech’s Discover • Bathymetric Sonar Control Software • Motion Tolerant Side Scan • Universal MRU mounting plate APPLICATIONS • Shallow Water Hydrographic Surveys • Benthic Habitat Mapping • Nautical Charting • Military Rapid Environmental Assessments (REA) • Route Surveys • Dredging Operations • Marine Debris Search • Port & Harbor Security s The 6205 is available in several standard frequency configurations: • 550 / 1600 kHz (Dual Frequency Side Scan with 550 kHz bathymetry data) • 550 / 850 kHz (Dual Frequency Side Scan with 550 kHz bathymetry data) • 230 / 550 kHz (Dual Frequency Side Scan with 550 kHz bathymetry data) • 230 / 550 kHz (Dual Frequency Side Scan with 230 kHz bathymetry data) s The modular design of the 6205 also allows for multi-frequency bathymetry options in a single sonar head. The field exchangeable array capability allows both shallow and deep water operations. The EdgeTech 6205 is a fully integrated Swath Bathymetry and Dual Frequency Side Scan Sonar System that produces real time, high resolution, side s scan imagery and three-dimensional maps of the seafloor. The 6205 overcomes the limitations of Multi Beam Echo Sounders (MBES) and Interferometric systems in shallow water by using EdgeTech’s unique Multi-Phase Echo Sounder (MPES) technology. This Hybrid approach combines both Beamforming and Phase Discrimination techniques to determine each sounding along the seafloor. With the s integration of EdgeTech’s Full Spectrum® CHIRP technology, the 6205 exceeds IHO SP-44, NOAA, and USACE specifications for Feature Detection and Bathymetric Point Data Uncertainty. s EdgeTech’s MPES technology enables the 6205 to produce wider and cleaner swath (over 200º) than current technologies, resulting in superior coverage s enabling faster and safer survey completion. At the same time, the 6205 rejects multipath effects, reverberation, and acoustic noise commonly encountered in shallow water environments. Additionally, EdgeTech’s latest 2205 Electronics and Modular Arrays are utilized s in the 6205 , resulting in an extremely lightweight design, which is required for shallow water applications and vessels of opportunity. s The standard configuration for the 6205 includes an integrated Sound Velocity Sensor, and interfaces to most Third-Party acquisition and processing software packages, as well as to standard GPS, MRU, SVP, Gyros, and INS.
