Product catalog summary

Overview
The Oceanscience Z-Boat 1800 is a remote-controlled hydrographic survey boat designed for efficient shallow water surveying. It offers a practical solution for areas where traditional methods are unsafe or impractical, providing real-time data transmission up to 1500 meters away.

Key Features

Remote Operation: Utilizes advanced radio communications for remote surveys, with easy navigation via GNSS on a shore-based laptop.
Corrosion Resistance: Built to withstand aggressive water environments, suitable for industrial applications like mine tailings ponds.
Compatibility: Works with hydrographic data acquisition software such as HYPACK® or QINSy, using standard data formats.
Customizable: Configurable with various survey equipment for different accuracy needs, including CEE HydroSystems echosounders.

Specifications

Physical Dimensions: Hull length of 180 cm and width of 90 cm, with a weight of 30 kg and a payload capacity of 20 kg.
Material: Constructed from UV-resistant ABS.
Motor Options: Single brushed DC outdrive or dual brushless 24V DC outdrives for high-speed operations.
Remote Control: Operates on a 2.4GHz frequency with a range of 1500 meters.
Performance: Typical survey speed of 3-4 knots, with a top speed of 10 knots for the high-speed model.
Battery: Endurance of up to 150 minutes for standard and 240 minutes for high-speed models.

Z-BOAT 1800 Remote Hydrographic Survey Boat www.oceanscience.com MAXIMIZE HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY EFFICIENCY The Oceanscience Z-Boat is an entirely new option for shallow water hydrographic surveying. Get bathymetry data where conventional methods are not practical or safe; avoid mobilizing a workboat or conducting hazardous and time-consuming wading measurements. The Z-Boat uses advanced radio communications equipment to oer remotely-operated hydrographic surveys at up to 1500m range with all data transmitted to the shore in real time. Navigation of the Z-Boat is easy using the GNSS position and heading available on the shore laptop or data collector. Resistant to corrosion from aggressive water, the Z-Boat is ideal for industrial water management applications such as mine tailings ponds and process leachate pits. Choose between standard and high speed propulsion options depending on the survey environment. SAVE TIME AND MONEY The Z-Boat is fully compatible with hydrographic data acquisition software such as HYPACK® or QINSy, and uses standard formats for data transmission so no special software interface is required. Easy to operate, the Oceanscience Z-Boat can be added to the surveyor’s toolkit without substantial training or setup costs. Existing GNSS equipment can easily be installed on the Z-Boat for maximum cost-eectiveness. PROFESSIONAL RESUL TS WITH NO COMPROMISES The Z-Boat may be specied with several congurations depending on the desired survey accuracy, or customized to accommodate existing survey equipment. High quality, fully integrated CEE HydroSystems echosounders are available as standard. The single frequency 200kHz CEEPULSE provides robust shallow water performance, while the 200kHz or dual frequency 33/200kHz CEESCOPE oers PPS time stamped data, integrated GNSS, and a full water column echo envelope record.
