The Company
General Acoustics, with its origins as an acoustics and sensors
research and services partnership, is a high technology producer
of special Echo Sounders,
Sub-Bottom Profiler
and corresponding hydrographical imaging and analytical
software. General Acoustics, founded 1996, has developed a wide
range of sounding products and systems as well as sensors for laboratory
and marine and engineering applications.
The products include
Water Level and
Wave Measuring Systems, the
Acoustic Tide Gauge
LOG_aLevel, special Echo Sounder for the
hydrographical-geological operations,
Sub-Bottom Profiler
and the ADCP Software LOG_aFlow which creates real flow charts from ADCP data. The
General Acoustics e.K. is represented in more than 50 countries
around the globe.
General Acoustics won in 2005
a comparison test against several
different
level and wave measuring sensors. The test was ordered by
the renowned Rijkswaterstaat (RIZA) in the Netherlands and performed
by Delft Hydraulics. Different kind of methods like radar sensors,
mechanical sensors, optical sensors, pressure sensors and ultrasonic
sensors were tested. The goal of the test was to find the best
technical solution to built up a monitoring network to measure
water level and waves
in the Netherlands.
2007 the LOG_aLevel tide and wave gauge received the BfG (Federal
German Hydrographic Authority) approval.
