Hydrographic Survey

Hydrographic surveys measure and describe the physical features of navigable water bodies — depths, seabed, shorelines, tides and currents. They ensure safe navigation and support the design and maintenance of marine infrastructure.

Using multi-beam and single-beam echo sounders, side-scan sonar and RTK positioning, PDSS Lab delivers reliable hydrographic data and charts.

Core hydrographic services:

  • Nautical charting and navigation channel surveys
  • Coastal zone management surveys
  • Pipeline and cable route surveys
  • Seabed classification and feature detection
  • Port, harbour and jetty surveys
  • Tide and current observations
  • Shoreline mapping and erosion monitoring
  • Pre- and post-dredging surveys

Technologies we use: multi-beam and side-scan sonar for detailed underwater imaging, GPS/RTK positioning, unmanned surface vehicles for efficient data collection and industry-leading processing software — giving accurate, compliant and easy-to-use hydrographic reports.

FAQs

Hydrographic Survey — common questions

What is the difference between bathymetric and hydrographic surveys?

Bathymetry measures water depth and bed shape; a hydrographic survey is broader and also covers navigation features, tides, currents, shoreline and seabed classification.

Do you survey inland waterways?

Yes. We survey rivers, canals and inland waterways as well as coastal and port areas.

What deliverables do you provide?

Processed depth data, charts, sections, seabed feature maps and a survey report.

Do you provide Hydrographic Survey near me?

Yes. PDSS Lab serves clients across India through our regional offices; our engineers travel to site and samples are tested in our NABL-accredited laboratory.

How can I verify a PDSS Lab report?

Every report has a unique number and QR code. Scan it or enter the number at verify.pdsslab.com to confirm it is genuine.
