Sector Scanning Sonar is an ideal tool for underwater search because it produces a "picture" of the underwater environment regardless of the water visibility. Fishers SCAN-650 is a high performance scanning sonar system that can be mounted on an ROV, pole-mounted for use from a small boat in swallow water, or mounted on a tripod on the bottom. The sonar images are displayed on the topside computer. Scanned data files are stored on a PC's hard drive along with boat's GPS position, time, date, and other pertinent data. The recorded files can be played back at anytime. Software is provided to allow post-processing of data including editing and merging of files. Small file sections, including screenshots, can be edited out and copied to a small file for emailing. A sizing tool is included in the software which allows the operator to determine the size of the targets on the screen. For more information, click here.
