The compact transducer array of the SeaBeam 1050 allows fixed installation in the ship's hull as well as mobile installation even on small survey launches. Mobile and cost-effective, the SeaBeam 1050 system has become the industrial standard for precise data acquisition in medium water depths, - first choice for leading commercial survey companies as well as for research institutes and Navies. Other highlights include 1.5 degree resolution, integrated sidescan sonar, and real-time motion compensation.
