Hydrographic Surveying
Dredge America is now providing high quality hydrographic survey services for marine related tasks covering lakes, marinas and rivers. Dredge America also owns and operates smaller vessels for surveying smaller lakes and homeowners’ association canals.
Dredge America owns and operates its own custom-built Scullys survey vessel (Recon). Equipment used on the vessel includes HYPACK MAX software packages, Trimble Navigation differential GPS (DGPS), real time kinematic (RTK) capable GPS receivers and Teledyne Odom echo sounders. Once the data is collected and processed it can be used alone or seamlessly merged with topographic data for 3D model creation.
Hydrographic services performed are:
- Mapping bottom contours of lakes and rivers
- Pre-dredging and post-dredging surveys
- Underwater obstructions / site investigations
- Bottom sampling and testing
- Monitoring lake sedimentation
- Volume calculations
Whether your needs are to have a small neighborhood canal system or an entire lake surveyed, Dredge America’s services will prove to be both timely and effective.
