CROSS SECTION AND VOLUMES can read hundreds of sections, compute the volumes and send all of the sections to the printer/plotter in a matter of seconds. Over 20 methods are available to compute the area and volume of material for each profile segment (left slope, main channel, right slope), it can compute quantities for a single survey versus the design template, or for a pre-dredge versus an after-dredge comparison.

The program is the de facto standard for volume computations by several national survey agencies.

The CROSS SECTIONS AND VOLUMES program quickly computes volume quantities for cross sectional profile lines compared to the channel design template and channel overdepth template for each line. It can compute volume quantities either from sections across channels or from surface models (TIN MODEL). Volumes Calculations: The HYPACK® ability to compute volume quantities is unsurpassed. MAPPER is a binning routine that can select minimum, maximum, average, or sounding closest to cell center to represent each cell. SOUNDING SELECTION selects min/max soundings and fills in between.

SORT selects the shoalest soundings and prevents overwrites.ĬROSS SORT selects random soundings and packs them in tight. Sounding Reduction: There are several options for sounding reduction, depending on your final product: Graphical review and editing of tracklines and depth profilesĭisplay of acoustic profile for network capable soundingsĭisplay of design templates and previous survey profiles The SINGLE BEAM EDITOR of HYPACK® provides for: Import background charts: DXF, DGN, S-57, TIF, MrSid, ARCSĬHANNEL DESIGN automatically creates planned lines and cross section profiles for channels and turning basins.ĪDVANCED CHANNEL DESIGN creates complex 3D surfaces for precise dredging and volume computations.Įditing: HYPACK® provides graphical editing and sounding selection routines that allow you to quickly prepare your survey data for plotting, export to CAD or several other final products. You’ll need to add a HYSWEEP® license to include the modules for multibeam data collection and processing.ĭesign: HYPACK® contains powerful tools that let you quickly design your survey: The sidescan sonar, subbottom, adcp and magnetometer collection and processing modules are standard features of HYPACK® MAX. It has everything you need to design your survey, collect your single beam data, process it and generate final products, such as contours, plotting sheets, output for CAD, fly-through views, cross sections and volumes calculations.
