Jan 2012: ADCP Workshop - June 13-14, Utrecht, NL.

Aqua Vision are proud to invite you to their ADCP Workshop in 2012.

Past workshops have proven to be a huge success and this years' will

be no different. With a host of international speakers, demonstrations of

the latest ADCP technology and an array of workshops, don't miss it!

Dec 2011: Aqua Vision have acquired a C3D system from Teledyne

Benthos. The C3D system represents the latest in sonar imaging,

creating a 3D image of the seafloor using a combination of high

resolution imagery and wide swath bathymetry. The system is

particularly suitable for shallow water applications, including habitat

mapping, model validation, fisheries, object detection and research.

2011: Aqua Vision and Eurosense Planning & Engineering delivered

the first draft of the tidal current atlas for the Port of Zeebrugge by order

of the Flemish Government. 21 thirteen hour measurements have been

performed to map the currents in the entering channel, the harbour

basin and two docks. The atlas has been produced using Aqua Visions

in house developed data presentation software software ViSea DPS.

2011: Aqua Vision started the third measurement campaign in

Germany by order of the German Federal Institute of Coastal

Engineering (BAW-AK). This time all three major German estuaries

(Elbe, Weser and Ems) will be measured for discharge, sediment

concentrations and flux.

2011: Aqua Vision and Rijkswaterstaat Department North-Holland

performed directional wave measurements using an Waves-Array

ADCP with NEMO module. The measurements were meant to test the

NEMO capabilities which proved to be very good. Delivered data

matched well with other means of wave measurements in the vicinity.

2010: By order of Nord Stream, Aqua Vision performed environmental

monitoring work during dredging activities at the gas pipe line location

in German waters southeast of the island of Rügen. Our ViSea Plume

Detection Toolbox was used to measure the spread of sediment with

an ADCP at the site of a Back-Hoe dredger and a Trailing Suction

Hopper Dredger. We made use of the vessel MV Supplier of Northern

Offshore Services.

2010: The University of Oklahoma have purchased our in-house

developed ViSea Plume Detection Toolbox as the first PDT customer

in the USA. They will perform measurements as part of their research

effort on river morphology, stream restoration etc.
