Reservoirs, Lakes & Coast
Drone bathymetry joined to the shoreline: depth, capacity, sediment and water level, bank to bottom in one continuous model.

Bathymetric Echosounder (SBES)
Drone-integrated dual-frequency sonar for accurate depth profiles and soft-sediment thickness.
The technical edge
How it works
Dual-frequency single-beam sonar distinguishes hard bottom from soft muck or sediment while a drone removes the need for a crewed vessel.
Strategic advantage
Why it changes the decision
Operates efficiently in shallow, sensitive, hazardous, or boat-inaccessible water bodies.

The data gap solved
Where conventional capture stops
Collects dependable depth data where launching a boat is unsafe, inefficient, or impossible.
Client advantage
What the data enables
Supports dredging, capacity, sediment, and water-infrastructure planning with lower operational exposure.
