CT Systems has recently announced installation of a complete Viking Dredge system on a cutter suction dredger owned and operated by J.P. Schilder BV.
The system consists of a Hemisphere all-in-one DGPS compass, stainless steel inclinometer, pressure sensor and an industrial fanless PC.
Using the installed stainless steel pressure sensor in combination with the actual water level information they can now dredge with a vertical accuracy of mere centimetres.
Viking Dredge visualises both the work matrix and theoretical DTM in real time, while at the same time, based on the information from the DGPS compass, pressure sensor and inclinometer the work matrix is also continually updated in 3D.
