| Definition | A medium-depth, multi-ping multibeam echosounder designed to measure seafloor depth. It is particularly suited to mapping the continental slope. The SeaBeam 3050 MK II is the successor of the SeaBeam 3050, providing the following improvements: Rx processing PCs with increased Rx processing power by a factor of ~3.5 and a reduced system complexity; FM processing functionality, leading to improved maximum swath width up to 15% and an improved range resolution. The SeaBeam 3050 MK II also collects bottom amplitudes, sidescan sonar and Water Column Imaging (WCI) data. The system uses the Wärtsilä ELAC HydroStar operator software which provides all sonar control functions, data recording and real-time displays for quality control. It also supports third-party software such as HYPACK, EIVA and QINSy. It operates in the 50 kHz frequency band in water depths up to 3000 m. It has an along-ship beam width from 1 - 3 degrees and an across-ship beam width from 1 - 2 degrees. Its pulse length ranges from 0.15 - 40 ms. | ||
