The Bathymetry Systems include high-performance bathymetry / hydrology systems which may be used for:
- analyzing the evolution of the river sections from a hydro-morphological point of view;
- assessment of environmental conditions in bodies of water;
- generating bathymetric maps;
- map underwater archaeological sites, such as shipwrecks, ancient cities, and submerged structures;
- disaster prediction and management;
- monitoring river-flow parameters (flows, flow rates);
- measurement and description of the physical features of bodies of water;
- bathymetry laboratories also serve as educational and research centers, training future oceanographers, geologists, hydrographers, and marine biologists in the use of bathymetric technology and data.
