HYCAT

Product descripton: HYCAT by SeaRobotics

Launched in 2018, the HYCAT was designed from the ground up to set the bar for man-portable ASV survey systems. Developed in partnership with Xylem Brands (YSI, SonTek & HYPACK), this unique ASV combines sensors from multiple brands to provide a comprehensive water studies package for site monitoring. Sensors have plug and play capabilities, allowing the HYCAT to be customized to your specific site needs.

The HYCAT can also be easily launched in remote locations, without the need for dock access. The vessel can run in depths as little as 1 foot, making it invaluable for surveying hard-to-reach locations, and at less than two meters in length, the HYCAT is SUV-portable and rapid to deploy.

A Customizable Suite of Sensors

The HYCAT can be used for a number of applications thanks to the various sensor options available: Surface water quality monitoring, using the EXO2s, bathymetry and water velocity mapping, using the SonTek M9, sidescan sonar imaging, using the Imagenex 230kHz/360kHz/800kHz, all while running on one platform using HYPACK software, making mission planning, monitoring, and real-time data acquisition as intuitive as possible.

Optional sensor options include an AtlasLink RTK GNSS Receiver. Integration packages can also be supplied if a customer already has an M9 or EXO2s.
