Elevating Bathymetric Surveys to Precision and Efficiency:

With a wealth of experience spanning two decades, Doug has meticulously conducted bathymetric surveys of nearly 100 dam basins and rivers across multiple African countries. His expertise lies in refining techniques to yield meaningful and accurate results within a short timeframe, ensuring cost-effectiveness without compromising quality.

Doug's extensive portfolio includes conducting sensitivity analyses on numerous dams, allowing for the identification of optimal survey techniques and sampling intervals. This strategic approach enables the efficient measurement of dam volumes, maximizing resource utilization.

Basin surveys demand a versatile blend of survey techniques, encompassing both topographic and bathymetric methodologies. While drone technology has been explored, the dense vegetation prevalent in most dam basins often compromises survey accuracy, rendering traditional methods more reliable.

Our surveys cater to a diverse range of sectors, including agriculture, urban development, and mining, serving both existing infrastructure and proposed projects. Whether assessing water resources for irrigation, urban planning, or industrial purposes, our comprehensive surveys provide invaluable insights for informed decision-making.
