CT Systems and precise dredging operations

Dredging operations using hydraulic cranes and a specially adapted VIKING software package.

On the left side 2 examples are shown. The bottom picture shows a theoretical profile in green and a last sounding in red. The precision of the vertical position depends on the kind of equipment installed, but is usually around 5 cm. The horizontal position is a function of the GPS equipment in use. Using RTK/LRK a precision of a mere 3-4 centimetres can be achieved.


A standard installation consists of the following items:

• Magellan, Aquarius LRK/GPS
• Magellan, 3011 GPS compass
• Industrial mini PC
• TFT flat screen
• DC/AC converter
• CTS Tidal device, if needed
