Stormwater Management for Development Applications
At AHYDTECH Geomorphic, we are able to produce various tools to manage stormwater
flow for development applications. These tools include floodplain mapping, flood hazard analysis,
water quality monitoring and other various stormwater management applications.
Environmental Assessment
AHYDTECH Geomorphic employees are highly trained in the field of Environmental Assessment.
We can provide various analytical and numerical modeling techniques, fluvial geomorphic applications
and other hands-on environmental assessment applications. These methods can be used to develop detailed
assessments.
Topography & Bathymetry Surveying
AHYDTECH Geomorphic has professional civil engineers (P. Eng.) who can perform topography and
bathymetry surveys. Our surveying staff members have experience in completing cross-section and
topographic survey for natural channel design, channel restoration and stream stabilization,
coastal engineering structure inspection, and channel/shoreline restoration/naturalization purposes.
We use Drone DJI Phantom 4 RTK + D- RTK, GPS and GNSS unite and Nikon DTM-322 total station to perform survey.
AHYDECH has Lowrance Elite-4 CHIRP and HY1500 Digital Echo Sounder bathymetric survey unit, which has a
recording sonar to measure depth and GPS to provide geo-reference coordinates.
Automated Bathymetry
AHYDTECH has an Unmanned Surveying Vehicle (USV) for measurement of bathymetry using HY1500 Digital Echo Sounder
bathymetric survey unit. It uses an onboard computer, GPS/RTK, depth sounder and other instruments. The boat’s
powerful outdrives are capable of reaching speed up to 3m/s and efficient V-bottom design produces smooth,
predictable, agile handling even rough waters. The 2 electric propellers provide thrust while producing little
noise, this improve the quality of the acoustic sounders data. Its remote- control range is about 2km. The USV
has 4-hour battery life. When used with a land based computer, it has the Hydra-II software for automated
guidance and route planning.
