bathymetric survey

Spicer Group owns various single and multibeam sonar sensors that can be quickly mounted to one of our marine vessels to capture high density survey grade data below the water surface. This detailed 3D sonar data is useful for a variety of applications, including bridge scour analysis, hydraulic surveying and modeling, pre and post dredge volume calculation surveys, and design applications.

Our team of surveyors and hydrographers utilize the latest in positioning and navigation technology, collecting data using real-time kinematic (RTK) GNSS during all field collection.  All final data is post processed using pos-processed kinematic (PPK) GNSS solutions for the highest possible accuracy that can be achieved in a marine environment. 

Spicer Group’s hydrographic team has performed hundreds of shallow-water bathymetric surveys for local, state, and federal agencies, marina owners, lake associations, and contractors. Our hydrographic surveying team consists of professional surveyors with decades of traditional and hydrographic surveying experience. We have significant experience fusing bathymetric data, LiDAR data and conventional survey data to create the most complete and useful 3D survey deliverables to support design.
