Hydrographic Surveys (ADCP, Current and Waves)
Client: |
Project: |
Location: |
Engineering Consultancy |
Collection of oceanographic parameters (tidal currents, wave and turbidity data) to support coastal process modelling and inform the outline design of a coastal and maritime development scheme. The scheme potentially included home and business space, roads, coastal defences, mooring and berthing facilities and navigation channels. |
