Wilfrid Laurier University Deployables

The suite of deployable systems can be used to support the development of baseline and timesensitive data on water quality to assess environmental change. The system can generate spatially resolved water quality data (temperature, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll-a) without being tethered to a boat. Side-scan sonar also enables bathymetry mapping. Highly trained personnel from user groups must be approved by the contact person prior to use or paid technical support can be arranged.
