Description
The University of Southern Mississippi is seeking bids for the purchase of a wide band high-resolution echo sounder system. The system will be used to map and classify bottom sediments, fish habitats, and surface backscattering characteristics. The system must meet specific technical requirements, including having three system components, supporting multi-frequency target detection, and providing calibrated bottom backscattering data.
• The system must have a bandwidth of at least 20 to 450 kHz.
• The system must support multi-frequency target detection, classification, and localization.
• The system must provide calibrated bottom backscattering data.
• The system must be able to operate at least 4 individual channels.
• The system must support the use of multiple displays.
• The system must be capable of integrating with positioning sensor data for georeferencing acquisitions.
