Frequently Asked Questions

What is side scan sonar imaging?

Side scan sonar imaging is a specialized technology used in marine environments to create detailed images of the seafloor. It operates by emitting sound waves from a towed or mounted device sideways across the ocean bottom, capturing the echoes that bounce back, which are then processed to produce images. This technology is crucial for mapping underwater landscapes, locating objects, and detecting changes in seabed structures. It is widely used in fields such as marine archaeology, dredging, and underwater construction.

What is the difference between sonar and side scan sonar?

Sonar (Sound Navigation and Ranging) is a general term for a technique that uses sound waves to detect and locate objects underwater. Side scan sonar is a specific type of sonar system designed to efficiently create detailed images of large areas of the sea floor. It emits sound waves directly downwards and to the sides, capturing the reflected sound to produce high-resolution, almost photographic-quality images. This makes side scan sonar particularly useful for mapping, surveying, and recovery operations in subsea environments.
