What is a Hydraulic Survey?
A hydrographic survey is used to measure and map the physical features and characteristics of bodies of water. The survey is used to gather data about the depth of the water, the shape of the bottom, and the location of any potential hazards or obstructions.
The data collected during a hydrographic survey is used to create detailed maps of the water body and the surrounding floodplain. This data can also be used to identify areas that are prone to flooding or erosion, and to monitor changes in the water level, flow, and sedimentation over time. Hydrographic surveys are important for maintaining safe and efficient navigation in waterways. They are also used for scientific research, resource management, and environmental monitoring.
