Hydrographic Survey Software

Trimble’s HYDROpro™ Navigation software is an easy to use software solution for today’s hydrographic surveyor. Designed with superior performance and efficiency in mind, it allows for significant improvements in productivity on even the most complex marine survey application.

Superior performance and productivityThe HYDROpro Navigation software operates on Windows operating systems. It provides an easy to understand graphical interface and flexible configuration that enables immediate gain with minimal training. The software supports multiple sensor inputs, ranging from heading sensors to tide gauges and echosounders. Combined with Trimble’s DGPS, RTK, or Total Stations it provides precise 3D positioning in real-time.

The HYDROpro Navigation software uses advanced time-stamping techniques for precise data synchronization. All data is stored in a single Microsoft Access database file to allow for more efficient file management activities.

The software’s flexible operation provides multiple ‘steerby’ capability, allowing guidance of multiple vessels and offsets to multiple guidance objects such as targets, lines, or routes. Guidance between mobile vessels is available. Any number of vessels can be monitored from a single location or across a network. Background files can be displayed graphically to show position in relation to guidance objects, coastal features, and so on. All of the displays, including the Remote Helmsman display, are available on seperate screens throughout a vessel.

A Coordinate Calculator is included, so you can convert single points and entire files to different datums and projections.

Graphical data editing with the HYDROpro NavEdit softwareThe HYDROpro NavEdit software integrates seamlessly with the HYDROpro Navigation software. With it, you can graphically filter and edit depth and tide data. The optional Trimble Terramodel® HDMS Windows processing software for volumes and 3D visualizations is also available. This market leading sofware offers rapid data processing (contouring, plotting, etc) for large hydrographic projects.

You can upgrade from the HYDROpro Navigation software to HYDROpro Construction, designed specifically for rig positioning, barge work, piling, and dredging, as well as hydrographic surveying.

The HYDROpro series builds on over a decade of development and industry-based experience. The name ‘HYDROpro’ has become synonomous with productivity, quality, and flexibility—a complete solution for your marine surveying application.

HYDROpro TerramodelPostprocessing and 3D Visualization Software

Trimble’s HYDROpro™

Terramodel® software is a

powerful postprocessing and 3D

visualization software package for

the marine surveying and

construction industry.

The software allows you to do

all the necessary calculations,

quickly and easily produce final

plots, generate contours, calculate

volumes, and even 3D ‘fly

throughs’ of your data collected

with the HYDROpro software.

Fast, accurate data processingFull drafting functionality, plan

form design, and plan plotting is

available so you can create an

intelligent model from

HYDROpro software data or from

a simple ASCII points file and

generate an entire map in seconds.

Points and lines are automatically

placed for you where you want—

all in a single easy step.

The HYDROpro Terramodel

software uses a 3D database with

unique point descriptor, so you can

perform highly-accurate and fast

survey calculation. All traditional

survey coordinate geometry

calculations procedures are also

available.

The HYDROpro Terramodel

software generates contours quickly

and in one step saving you time

and money. You can cut cross-

sections anywhere that you want

them. You can also visualize the

surface in 3D color and rotate it

using a mouse.

The most complete and

powerful DTM surface design

tools available today are included,

enabling you to calculate accurate

volumes without having to cut

cross-sections. You can experiment

with different channel or

breakwater alignments to find the

perfect design. You can also

produce volumes quickly and

accurately from large data sets in

just a few seconds.

Optional modules to furtherautomate and visualize yourwork The optional Channel module

provides you with ‘drag-and-drop’

design vertical alignment and

definition of channel shapes and

templates, allowing you to easily

adjust and immediately visualize

and ‘walk’ down a channel or sea-

wall design.

By purchasing the optional

Automated Sheet Assembly and

Production (ASAP) module you

can dramatically increase the

speed and accuracy of the

finished plan production for

alignment-based sheets by using

its powerful drafting automation

features.

The Terramodel Visualizer

software is a very strong marketing

tool that you can use to show

clients how an existing surface or

proposed design will actually look

by generating and viewing 3D

color perspective views from any

DTM surface. You can then create

and record a video ‘flight path’

along a 3D surface and 'fly' down

it.

The HYDROpro Terramodel

software is ideal for hydrographic

surveyors who require an

integrated survey, CAD, drafting,

and surface modeling tools all in

one package.
