This week, I talk about Leeway Marine and Kraken Sonar partnering to drive down the cost of High quality Surveys. Kraken Supplies the sonar system, and Leeway Marine supplies the Vessel.
having talked about Leeway Marine in the past, its worth showing off what Kraken Can do.below are images from Kraken’s website, of the Volvos on the bottom of the Bedford basin.
Yesterday, @KrakenRobotics finished a few days of testing the #Katfish Towed Synthetic Aperture Sonar System with @LeewayMarine. Here are a few #bathymetric images they took of a wreck off of Cow Bay, and #Volvos on the floor of the Bedford Basin. #oceantech pic.twitter.com/d98zVn3HVM

compare these images with the Side Scan Sonar image created by NRCAN from around 2007.
for another Comparison, see the shipwreck image below from Kraken, and compare that to the side Scan Sonar image of the ferry Governor Cornwallis (also from around 2007, via NRCan)
