  Hydrographic Surveying – The Eyes and Ears of the Dredging Engineer

  Simon Burgmans, Director & Principal Dredging Engineer, in2Dredging Pty Ltd

  
  

  Accurate hydrographic survey data is fundamental to the successful planning, execution, and commercial management of dredging projects. From the initial baseline survey through to progress monitoring and final acceptance surveys, survey data provides the “eyes and ears” of the dredging engineer. In this presentation, Simon will discuss the importance of hydrographic survey data from both a technical and commercial dredging perspective.
