More is less
A survey company can stockpile a few dozen nodes, grab however many they need based on a survey’s parameters, connect them and “go.”
The nodes are identical and interchangeable. Instead of humans micro- managing sensor relationships, they figure it out independently. One of the sensors takes charge, coordinates data from the network and sends it to the humans topside.
If you add another sensor, the sensor in charge recognizes and integrates the new sensor.
Less downtime can lower on-vessel equipment setup from half a day to half an hour. -
Crush Survey Ops Costs
The network array weighs a fraction of the payload of comparable systems, creating cascading returns:- Requires a smaller, less expensive vessel
- Survey in shallower water
- Survey in rougher weather = Less downtime
- Less payload to lift off the deck = Safer to crew and lower risk of damaging expensive boat machinery
-
Scale up to 30
Right size your network up to 30 nodes based on a survey parameters. -
Time-Synced Precision
The consequences of poor time synchronization range from bad data to useless data. Synapse keeps its nodes synchronized to within microseconds. Automatically. -
Higher Definition
Get sharper data with faster sampling rates and tighter survey tracks with more compact mags. -
Ultralight
Our smaller sensors can reduce an array’s size and weight by a factor of 4-5. -
