We are delighted to announce the release of Survey Engine 4, our powerful sidescan and seismic processing, interpreting and reporting software suite for geophysical surveys. This comprehensive package allows the user to integrate all sensor data within a single project which massively reduces interpretation time resulting in significant cost-savings. This major upgrade brings two completely new modules: Mosaic+ and Pipeline+ to the Survey Engine platform. All additions are fully integrated with Seismic+ and Sidescan+ and bring a host of new features for our existing Survey Engine user base. For full description of Survey Engine 4 please visit our website.
To upgrade to Survey Engine 4 or to arrange a full functionality free trial, please contact our sales team.
Pipeline specific interpretation types such as Free Spans, Exposures, Burials, Partial Burials all supported
Integrated span height measurement tool, as used and trusted by the industry in GeoSurvey
Define and display pipeline interpretation corridor
Many export options for interpretation including GIS, CAD, Excel and user definable ASCII formats
New Features for Existing Survey Engine Users
Of course, we haven’t forgotten our existing Survey Engine user base… here is a selection of powerful features available to Sidescan+ and Seismic+ users as well as Mosaic+ and Pipeline+ users in Survey Engine 4.
Powerful, Intuitive Navigation Editing
View and edit your navigation data in an easy to use ‘click and drag’ editorAdvanced 3 pass automated smoothing including outlier removal
Position, Heading, KP, DCC, Layback, Fish Offset and Water Depth can all be edited and smoothed
Great tool for QC of data to easily identify and rectify navigation errors
Expanded Export Formats With New Attribute Manager
Native GIS and CAD outputs are supported with availbaility of SHP and DXF formats
Extremely powerful Attribute Manager to ensure that all your interpretations are exported with full attribute properties that will be available in the GIS and CAD platforms
All measurements and dimensions associated with your intepreted features can be stored as attributes for export
ASCII reporting also now integrates with the Attribute Manager ensurinf a consisten, powerful interface across all export formats
Target Manager
Navigate through your interpreted features easily using our new Target Manager
Sort by Feature Type, Classification, Time and KP with a handy ‘Show Feature in Data Window’ to immediately locate the feature you are looking for
All feature properties are available for editing and measurements can be made interactively
Snapshot images of the feature are also displayed when available
Target Manager can be used from the Sidescan, Seismic and Survey Explorer windows
Forced User Measures
Forced User Measures allow the user to setup interpretation types to automatically prompt for measurements to be performed when the interpretation is placed
Minimise the amount of time in completing missing measurements from interpretations
Measurements now displayed on screen, so easily visible
User can specify length, width, height, span height, depth and offsets to be Forced Measures
We have also introduced short cut keys for interpretation types to make the process more productive
Feature Consolidation Toolkit
A powerful new feature to allow rapid consolidation of features interpretted from overlapping lines
Features from other lines shown as semi-transparent but can still be edited from the current line
Select multiple features and then consolidate them to an existing or place a new feature
Sidescan Survey Line Coverage
Display the coverage of your sidescan lines
Easily identify areas of missing coverage and areas of unnecessary overlap
Simple property setting of the line that can be quickly toggled
And Many More…
User definable sections – apply different processing functions for each section to get the finest control over your data set
New TVG Normalisation function – a powerful processing function to normalise the signal gain across multiple sidescan survey lines simultaneously
Ability to copy seabed location from one sidescan channel to another
Improved cursor linkage between Survey Explorer and Sidescan and Seismic Data windows
Single checkbox to show/hide each survey line in Data Explorer window
Directional arrows on lines in Survey Explorer to indicate run direction
New Screen Dump option from Survey Explorer
