YSI i3XO EcoMapper AUV
The Next Generation of Autonomous Water Quality Vehicles
The YSI i3XO EcoMapper generates high-resolution maps of water quality, water currents, bathymetry, and sonar imagery.
- One person deployable system
- Intuitive Point and Click mission planning (user defined or predefined patterns)
- Geo-referenced data
- *Up to 8 water quality parameters (*4 sensor ports)
- Bottom mapping and water column profiling
- Operating depth of up to 100 meters
- Complete wide-area surveys without the use of a boat
YSI Integrated Systems & Services partnered with Ocean Server Technology to combine the Iver3 Autonomous Underwater Vehicle and the YSI EXO water quality system to create the i3XO AUV. The i3XO is the combination of the latest in water quality and AUV’s combined into one robust monitoring platform.
The i3XO AUV will provide high resolution water quality data, side scan sonar imaging, downward looking current profiling, and bathymetric surveying. Used by government agencies, military, universities, contractors, and private organizations, the versatility of the i3XO is perfect for all your monitoring requirements.
