The Trimble SPS356 GNSS Beacon receiver is the next generation L1 Beacon receiver that is capable of using RTCM DGNSS (multi-constellation) corrections when available. The SPS356 includes Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth capabilities, expanding system integration and connectivity options.

 The SPS356 is an ideal solution for a wide range of marine construction applications including:

• Dredging
• Positioning (tugs / anchors)
• Navigation
• Rock and material placement
• Nighttime bridge operations
• Bathymetric survey

The MIDAS WLR replaces the popular Model 730T as Valeport's Water Level Recorder / Seabed Tide Gauge. Designed for long or short term deployments in offshore environments, or locations where a traditional shore based tide gauge is impractical, the MIDAS WLR may be moored in line or to the seabed. The standard instrument is fitted with a 0.01% accuracy pressure sensor and acetal housing for up to 500m depth rating, with a deep water titanium housed option also available.

A result of nearly two years research and development to further extend the boundaries of shallow water hydrographic surveying equipment. The introduction by Ohmex of the SonarMite, the worlds first truly portable echo sounder system, has been a hard act to follow and it remains the portable instrument of choice in many survey companies around the world. The release of the SonarMite MTX/BTX instrument marks the next stage introducing a series of equipment designed around the  WinSTRUMENT concept using the latest portable computers integrated with new measurement technologies.

The miniTIDE is a high accuracy, low cost water level recorder, designed to operate throughout a minimum of one lunar cycle. Combining the 0.01% pressure measurement technology utilised on Valeport’s larger instruments with novel low power, high volume data logging, the miniTIDE provides a cost-effective, reliable solution that will appeal to both coastal surveyors and academia alike.

TideMaster has been designed to provide an accurate, versatile and easily deployed tide gauge for use in short or long term survey operations with either pressure or radar sensor measurement. Optional control/display panel, Bluetooth, SD card memory and optional weather sensor provide unrivalled functionality. Low power consumption and user selectable sampling regime allow for up to a year of autonomous operation, whilst optional telemetry packages extend the capabilities for real time operations. TideMaster is compatible with a wide range of hydrographic software and tools.

The VRS-20 is a pulsed k-band radar level sensor developed by Valeport to work seamlessly with the Valeport TideMaster, operate standalone with optional integrated GPRS telemetry to internet, or interface directly to a third party datalogger or PC. Versatile and simple to install, the VRS-20 addresses a number of the issues traditionally associated with level measurement.
