CEEDUCER PRO™
portable solution for shallow water
hydrographic surveys
The CEEDUCER PRO™ is a compact fully functional hydrographic survey system, with built in GPS, data logging, a dual channel echosounder and a rechargeable battery. This allows for fast acquisition of bathymetric survey data with minimum fuss.
Housed in a rugged Pelican case the CEEDUCER PRO™ is capable of fast deployment in vessels of opportunity and has been designed to be simple to use in the field without impacting data quality.
The CEEDUCER PRO™ hydrographic survey system is currently in use worldwide by defence departments, port & harbour authorities, educational institutes and environmental agencies. It is used in applications ranging from dredging and engineering surveys to beach profiling for environmental studies.
The CEEDUCER PRO™ has the ability to accept various external inputs, including: the user's own GPS, RTCM, tide, heave and deep water echosounders. This can extend the CEEDUCER PRO™ survey capabilities.

1 Depends on multipath environment, antenna selection, number of satellites in view,
satellite geometry, baseline length (for local services)and ionospheric activity.
2 Depends on multipath environment, number of satellites in view, satellite geometry,
and ionospheric activity.
3 Depends also on baseline length.
