DALO is looking for a system that can obtain a vertical sound velocity profile to 200 meters depth from a moving hydrographic survey vessel (Moving Profiler System).
The current system used by the Danish Navy requires a full stop of the survey vessel in order to obtain the sound velocity profile. This operation is time consuming and will often reduce the profile spots to the end of the survey lines.
In order to save time and improve data quality during hydrograph survey DALO is looking for a semi automatic or a full automatic system that can obtain a single sound velocity profile while moving at survey speed 8 knots.
A system based on expendables probes is not accepted.
DALO will purchase 5 Moving Profiler Systems and an operational training course.
