Hydrographic Surveys
It is critical to know where barriers exist immediately under the ocean's surface in the intertidal zone or along rural waterways during various building projects' design and engineering phases. Hydrographic surveys are necessary to assess how much dredging is required during building a hydro generating dam, the depth of a tailings pond on a mine's land, etc. Sonar and other underwater sound imaging techniques provide a more accurate picture of the terrain along the riverbed or between the high and low waterlines. All plans and specifications must be error-free and consistent.
At Vancouver Land Surveyor Pros, our team is prepared to conduct various water-based or
construction surveys. Our team uses cutting-edge technology to give extensive and precise data and analysis.
We utilize up to date technology and software:
- Processing software for Hypack
- The SeaFloor HyDrone (Unmanned Surface Vehicle)
- Depth sounders with multiple beams and single beams

Why is Hydrographic Survey Important?
Our company's motto encapsulates why hydrography is important: 'Nautical charts defend lives, property, and the maritime environment.'
The charts we use are the roadmaps that seafarers use to navigate their boats from port to port properly. They contain many details, such as depictions of the shoreline, depths, navigational dangers such as shoals, and navigational aids such as buoys, lights, and lighthouses.
Adapting to Changing Waterscapes
Catching up with changes in Canada's waterscape is a significant problem for many. High-traffic regions, such as the great lakes, shipping routes, and popular recreational areas like waterways, are prioritized for resurveying.
Artificial islands in the western Arctic no longer used for oil and gas extraction are also on the priority list. Because of ice scouring and currents, these islands alter their form and pose navigational risks.
It's incredible what today's technology allows. An electronic nautical chart on a ship's bridge can be connected with other systems to warn of oncoming threats and hazards to the vessel. Our team possesses a wealth of information, and it can all be used to improve safety.
