Depth profiles, complete bed surfaces or river-flow measurements: start with the result you need. Explore CHCNAV survey vessels and sensors with local advice from MMS Design.
Explore the Pro options for the APACHE 3 and 4 families, alongside the current APACHE 6. Sensor options are configuration choices, not a promise that every payload is included.
For river, lake and reservoir depth surveys with an integrated D270 single-beam sounder. GNSS + IMU navigation, obstacle sensing and EasySail support route planning and data collection.
A configurable platform for depth, flow and water-quality projects. Supports D270, D60 and HQ-400 configurations, plus mainstream ADCPs. Side-scan sonar and water-quality sensors require a specified integration.
A tri-hull platform with removable side floats for bathymetric mapping, underwater object location and marine construction. Supports optional multibeam and LiDAR payloads. HN-400M field integration is documented; D60 requires a custom bracket.
CHCNAV continues to list APACHE 3 and APACHE 4 alongside their Pro variants. We do not represent those models as discontinued. No APACHE 6 Pro successor is listed in the reviewed official range. For an existing vessel, request a compatibility assessment.
Measure depth along survey lines for cross-sections and volume work. D60 uses two frequencies, but remains a single-beam sounder.
Compact depth measurement for river cross-sections, reservoir volumes and dredging surveys. A temperature sensor supports sound-velocity correction; wireless configuration and an OLED status display simplify setup.
Two frequencies for changing depth and bottom conditions. Integrated motion compensation and automatic gain/range adjustment support consistent bathymetry. Directly compatible with APACHE 4 and 4 Pro; APACHE 6 requires a custom installation bracket.
An integrated sounder and industrial PC for boat-based hydrographic data collection. Choose it when a built-in display and computer suit your survey workflow.
Collect a swath of soundings to build a detailed bed surface. Choose the sensor, positioning, sound-velocity measurements and installation as one survey system.
Map a swath of the bed rather than isolated depth profiles. The compact sonar integrates motion sensing and positioning for river, reservoir and dredging surveys. APACHE 4 Pro compatibility is explicitly documented by CHCNAV.
Switch frequency to suit the survey conditions, with an integrated IMU and wide swath for channel mapping and underwater inspection. CHCNAV documents installations on APACHE 4 and APACHE 6; confirm the required integration for your vessel.
Tell us your water depth, required coverage, current conditions and existing equipment. ADCPs measure flow; they are not classified here as echo sounders.
