Custom GeoDredge for Bell Dredging for New Dredger

by CT Systems

A batch of GeoDredge units with custom styling was delivered to Bell Dredging, directly to be installed on the newly built BCD250 cutter suction dredger destined for the Czech Republic.

The GeoDredge installation is powered by our Viking software and offers internal RTK GNSS positioning. By combining the RTK GNSS data with our stainless steel inclinometer the Viking software can determine the exact 3D position of the dredge head with centimetre accuracy.
