PDS2000 Singlebeam Survey
PDS2000 covers the entire operation from acquisition to end product. PDS2000 Singlebeam provide all the necessary tools and modules to perform a survey and get excellent results.
PDS2000-Singlebeam offers all features as required for standard surveys, different screen lay-outs are easy to set-up. For data processing the standard position editor and line-based echosounder data editor are available. Next to that PDS2000 supports volume computations, profile plotting and charting.
PDS2000 Singlebeam records the data of the echosounder combined with the positioning system. Data can be edited and corrected for tidal corrections. Volume computations are a standard feature with PDS2000. The results of the survey can be compared with the theoretical design. To compute the volume of the sediment the volume between 210kHz and 33kHz can be taken. The data is used in the RESON software PDS2000-dredge as a dredge layer.

Survey planning provides the functionality to create routes, runlines and waypoints. Routes and runlines can also be imported from ASCI data or created interactively. |

Channel design and 3D modeling is used to create theoretical designs for volume calculations and profiles. 3D modelling is used for any model from a simple channel design to the most complex design. |
Data acquisition for singlebeam surveys provides the functionality for the surveyor and helmsman to carry out the survey more efficiently. A variety of displays is available to show the progress and quality of the survey. The progress is logged in a DTM which is available for analysis directly after your survey. Plan views can be turned vessel up, runline up or north up. |

Data processing/Cleaning module has several editors for positioning data and singlebeam data. A Tidal data editor is available to reduce the depths for tide. The single beam editor shows the positions relative to the sailed line and the measured depths. All editing tools as delete, undelete, smooth, move, interpolate and spike finding are available. All editors have an undo and redo functionality. |
PDS2000 Plot is especially designed to produce charts for the hydrographic analysis. Topviews and profiles can be combined in one chart. Data can be plotted with contours, depths and colour coded. All necessary information is available on the chart. |

Volume calculations can be derived in two ways: using gridmodels and/or cross-sections. The grid model editor is used to create gridmodels. The gridmodel can be combined with a theoretical design to calculate the volumes and create a differential Grid model. Volume calculations can also be carried out using the Singlebeam data file. The data can be compared with a theoretical depth or model but it is also possible to compare the result of two frequencies. |
