IXSEA trains future hydrographers
IXSEA provided workshops and loaned equipment for hydrographic students at the Willem Barentz Marine Institute, Terschelling, The Netherlands: "This is a great opportunity for future Dutch hydrographers and gives them the opportunity to interact with the professional field and to test and trial real products in real situations," said Mr Rob vanRee, Hydrography Lecturer at the Willem Barentz Marine Institute. "Our training vessel Octans is moored in front of the institute and it takes only 10 minutes to bring the vessel to surveyable waters."

IXSEA delivers a Global Acoustic Positioning System (GAPS) to Canadian Scientific Submersible Facility (CSSF)
Vincent Auger of the CSSF said the GAPS was selected after several weeks of trials for its key strengths:
• Fast, simple installation on to ships of opportunity
• Integrated, high-accuracy motion, attitude and position sensors
• Elimination of sensor offset errors, as the entire unit is self-contained
• No calibration required, saving expensive ship time and other calibration costs for every installation.
Mr Auger further stated the acoustic performance was also better than other available systems. “Taken as a whole, the GAPS system will save time and deliver exceptional results.”
