Pinger profilers are the standard iXSurvey tool for the acquisition of high-frequency seismicdata. iXSurvey operates heave-compensated, narrow-beam, hull-mounted or over-side transducers capable of clearly imaging sub-bottom stratigraphy and features such as faults and channels.
The GeoPulse Sub-bottom Profiler is a tried and tested, industry standard sub-bottom profiling system for shallow geophysics. It is highly flexible allowing operation as either a hull mounted deep water system, an "over-the side mount" system for small boat operations or as a towed system.
The Transmitter (Model 5430A) allows control of the output power, frequency and the number of full cycles included in the outgoing pulse. Seabed returns can be conditioned by analogue means using the GeoPulse Receiver (Model 5210A) or digitally using a wide range of third party processing systems.
