Abstract

The topic of this preliminary study comes from the need to analyze the positioning of the multi-beam bathymetric system on a research vessel on the Danube River. Starting from the variants of bathymetric echo sound systems, they were discussed in advance with the supplying company and the construction shipyard to ensure the most advantageous cases of positioning the bathymetric equipment. The results of this preliminary study provide the researchers and the shipyard with several options for positioning the bathymetric system to choose a constructive solution that will ensure the requested operation conditions for recording the most relevant waterways bathymetric data regarding the safety of navigable channels on the Danube River.
