YellowScan is set to present its YellowScan Navigator topo-bathymetric system for drones, marking a pivotal moment in technological innovation for environmental monitoring.
Utilizing a green laser that penetrates the water’s surface and reflects off the seabed, the YellowScan Navigator captures underwater topography in three dimensions.
Specifically designed for mapping shallow waters – where traditional techniques, such as sonar on boats, face navigation safety concerns – the YellowScan Navigator has demonstrated effective functionality down to 20 meters in optimal conditions.
Furthermore, it produces 3D digital models of rivers or seabeds with an accuracy of 3 centimeters, the company said.
The transformative environmental applications of YellowScan Navigator include:
