Maritime and Port Sector
Geospatial information for ports and coastal operations
Know and understand the real state of your terminals, channels and coastal works with precise geospatial information.
We carry out multibeam bathymetry with unmanned surface vessels (USV) and hydrographic surveys of access channels, basins and manoeuvring areas, including dredging volume control.
For port infrastructure we apply 3D laser scanning, surveying and photogrammetry for the dimensional control of wharves, yards and structures, and for shoreline monitoring.

Where we work in the maritime and port sector
Port terminals
Full terminal survey, asset inventory and As-Built models.
Quays and berths
3D laser scanning, dimensional control and structural deformation monitoring.
Access channels and basins
Multibeam bathymetry, operational draught control and dredging verification.
Breakwaters and shelter works
3D modelling of the armour layer, volume computation and scour tracking.
Yards, warehouses and internal roads
Mobile mapping, layout optimisation and geospatial inventory.
Coastline and coastal defences
Coastline survey and erosion and sedimentation tracking.
Four business lines across the life of the project
Plan, design, build, operate and monitor. The same four lines in every sector, with the activities and deliverables that sector needs.
