Hydrographic Survey USV (Unmanned Surface Vehicle)

Our USV technology offers a versatile and robust platform for automated marine surveying, ensuring high-quality data acquisition in diverse conditions.

• Powerful Propulsion
  Equipped with a high-performance drive system capable of reaching a maximum speed of 10 knots, the USV delivers efficient site coverage by rapidly transiting between survey lines and maintaining consistent survey speeds even in tidal or current-affected areas. This speed capability reduces mobilization time on large project sites, increases the daily coverage rate, and ensures that tight project deadlines are met without compromising data density or positional accuracy. The propulsion system is tuned for endurance, allowing extended missions with minimal battery or fuel consumption while providing the thrust necessary to operate confidently in coastal, harbor, and inland water bodies.
• Water Jet Thruster
  Advanced jet propulsion replaces conventional propellers, delivering superior maneuverability and enabling precise station-keeping, tight turns, and smooth line-following — all essential for high-resolution survey patterns. The absence of exposed rotating parts makes the water jet ideal for shallow water operations where propeller strike risk is high, and it allows the USV to navigate in depths of just a few tens of centimeters. The vectored thrust design provides instant directional response, minimizes wash that could disturb sediments or benthic habitats, and ensures safe operation near divers, mooring lines, and floating debris.
• Debris and Industrial Resilience
  Engineered for great performance against debris, the USV features a reinforced hull and protected intake that resists fouling from floating vegetation, plastic, and woody material commonly encountered in rivers, estuaries, and industrial waterways. Its specialized design makes it particularly suited for operations near water power plants, where intake and outfall structures create turbulent flows and submerged hazards, and around heavy infrastructure such as quay walls, jetties, offshore platforms, and cable landfalls. The ruggedized construction, impact-resistant materials, and redundant communication systems guarantee continuous data collection even in demanding, high-consequence industrial environments.
