HWS

Hydrographic Work Station

The small and powerful HWS has been optimized for interface access and the ability to work with high data rates and graphics rendering of real time data from EM multibeam echosounders. The acquisition software Seafloor Information System, SIS, can create Digital Terrain Models (DTMs) from all soundings on-the-fly, and display a full point cloud or DTM in 2D and 3D.

Hydrographic Work Station Capabilities

The HWS also serves as operator station for other KM products: SBP 27/29, TOPAS and EA440/640. It is a maritime certified computer system where all components have been tested together and verified to the standards IEC60945 and E10. The new generation HWS is smaller and faster than ever before, and can be used with all EM systems, SBP 27/29, TOPAS, and EA440/640. Maritime certifications include IEC60945 and E10.
