Streamline Survey Process
SonarWiz streamlines the survey process and simplifies the number of software programs you need to learn. It operates with almost all sonar manufacturers, so you won’t need to re-familiarize yourself with different software each time you need to use different equipment. SonarWiz interfaces with all brands of commercially available sidescan sonar, sub-bottom profilers, magnetometers, echosounders and bathymetic interferometers.

Sidescan
View and analyze Sidescan data in real time with the industry’s most complete seafloor mapping solution. Enjoy SonarWiz’s easy-to-use survey management tools, reliable data acquisition, powerful post-processing, and flexible reporting options.
Sub-bottom
Explore sediment layers in-depth with SonarWiz for Sub-Bottom Profilers with real-time data acquisition and post-processing modules. It also includes navigation, fathometer and magnetometer inputs so you get a broad perspective of a survey area.
MULTIBEAM
Collecting and processing bathymetry data is a breeze with the SonarWiz workflow and toolset. Produce near seamless amplitude mosaics right off the boat using helm display, plan view, coverage map and directional indicators, as well as automatic, whole survey gain optimization.
Single beam
Easy to use interface for data logging and processing. Data input from single beam sensor, motion sensor and navigation device through serial and network connections. Many tools to process in XYZ to generate and export sounding, grid surface and contours for final products.
Magnetometry
Help dive teams and recovery personnel locate underwater artifacts, treasures and pipelines you seek to find, map, or recover with SonarWiz. Mag data for ferrous-object detection, co-recorded with sidescan or sub-bottom data, provides a valuable new layer of information.

“I just wanted to say I am blown away at the increase in efficiency and usability from the first 7x release to the current version (7.4.x). The multi-processing capability is working great on our workstations; importing, adjusting, and refresh speeds are a fraction of what they were. I love having optional EGN tables. Exporting mosaics is a breeze. Just wanted to say well done!”
