From data acquisition to reporting

Periplus can assist in processing and charting survey data acquired offshore. Our experts can help with the full spectrum of data management, from data acquisition to final data presentation and reporting. 

After more than two decades' working with subsea data, our network is vast. In addition to our own staff and freelancers, we can connect you with the right people at reliable survey companies to undertake data acquisition. 

Bringing the seabed to the surface

Underneath the surface of the sea, nature and human-made structures coexist. The seabed changes constantly.  Relics of the past, such as shipwrecks and unexploded ordinances, lie next to valuable modern infrastructure like cables and pipelines. Knowing how the seabed is changing, and exactly where offshore assets lie, is crucial for operating safely, efficiently and securely offshore. Our experts use a variety of cutting-edge tools to gain a clear picture of what is happening in the hidden subsea world. We bring this information from the seabed to the surface.

Bathymetry

We use the latest software for bathymetric data cleaning. In this process we validate the data and save what's needed to build reliable bathymetric models of your waterways, port, underwater assets or anything else.
The bathymetric model can be used by us to create charts completely to your desires, make volume calculations or use the data to display in GRIDit.

 
 

Side Scan Sonar

Side scan sonar data are acoustic scans of the seabed. We have the required skills to distinguish the objects from the noise. Besides object detection we can also do seabed classification. It takes well trained people to do this job well!

 

Magnetometer

Magnetometer data are used to locate ferrous objects on or under the seabed. This can either be cables, pipelines, smaller objects like archaeological artifacts but also Unexploded Ordnance (UXO).

Using specialized software we will report where the object is, how deep it is buried and what it's dimensions are.

 
 

Sub-bottom Profiler

Sub-bottom profiling is used to map geological layers under the seabed. This technique is often used to measure the distance of burial of pipes and cables, but can also be used to locate sand pockets or ancient riverbeds.

We use state of the art software and well trained people to get the most out of your data.
