HYDROMAP

Hydrographic Drone for Marine Autonomous Profiling

A semi-autonomous marine vehicle dedicated to port inspections

The HYDROMAP (Hydrographic Drone for Marine Autonomous Profiling) is the latest platform developed by CIDCO. This advanced technology combines the use of an autonomous marine vehicle (EchoBoat ASV Seafloor) with a high-precision multibeam sonar sensor (R2 Sonic 2020) and a 3D LiDAR system (Velodyne VLP 16) to perform accurate inspections of port infrastructures both above and below the water. Additionally, HYDROMAP utilizes the SBG Ekinox inertial navigation system, which combines an IMU and a GNSS to ensure precise positioning.
