About

About APACHE 4

APACHE 4 is CHCNAV's compact uncrewed surface vessel for hydrographic and hydrological survey. It integrates GNSS and inertial navigation with support for ADCP, single-beam and multibeam echo sounders.

The platform targets river discharge measurement and bathymetric mapping, including work near bridges and other obstructed sites. Survey accuracy, endurance and current-profile output depend on the installed sensors, water conditions and mission plan.
