Using Echoview software with Signature ADCPs to get the most out of echosounder data
Some of Nortek’s Signature ADCPs offer an optional echosounder mode, allowing users to gather simultaneous current profiles and echosounder datasets. Visualization and processing of this echosounder data enables users to collect information about biomass, sediment or other objects in the water column. Find out how a partnership between hydroacoustic data specialists Echoview Software and Nortek makes quality data collection and visualization possible.
