L3 Klein UUV-3500 Side Scan Sonar
for Iver2 Base 42
Specifications:
High resolution, dual frequency sonar for photo-like quality
imagery
fully integrated with
VectorMAP mission planning software and
SonarMosaic
for quickly
creating multiple sonar sweeps in seconds and rapid post mission
analysis. The UUV-3500
operates exclusively with L-3 Klein's
proprietary wideband technology providing
unmatched
side scan range and resolution performance in a low power,
compact design for the Iver2 base 42 AUV.
The below example of a river survey was completed with the
Iver Base 42 and Klein 3500 and
processed with OceanServer's SonarMosaic tool. The precise
alignment of the sonar data with
the map source can be easily viewed and all images are fully
geo-referenced. (Full Data
