S3

Affordable, professional-level multibeam echosounder

For more than a decade, WASSP has delivered professional-level multibeam echosounders with a product and price-point that bridges the gap between single-beam sonar and higher-end MBES systems. The S3 is one of the world’s most cost-effective, professional survey and mapping multibeam solutions currently available on the market. 

 

The new WASSP S3 introduces RPM (Real-time Processing Module) which enhances seafloor tracking and ping rates to give more accuracy and detail in your survey data. The RPM module works as a license, processing data via the DRX processor unit, and allowing higher quality data to be processed for use with 3rd party survey software applications. Scanning a 120-degree swath width, port-to-starboard, and using advanced signal processing, the S3 gives you a complete and accurate picture of seafloor bathymetry so you can really understand what you’re looking at.

With RPM you can choose to use the WASSP CDX GUI for all your WASSP system settings and live mapping data, or directly interface to your preferred survey software suite, including HYPACK, BeamworX, EIVA, Echoview, QINSy, CT Systems and others with a range of export options.
