Calibration Sphere in Action

This was recorded at the Nordsøen Oceanarium in Hirtshals, in February 2023, this was a collaboration of DTU Aqua, Nordsøen Oceanarium and the Thünen Insititute of Sea Fisheries.We used Simrad EK80 eschosounders (18° 38 kHz & 7° 120 kHz), video recordings were done with a GoPro Hero 5.

Client Testimonials

See what our clients say about us.

The echosounder calibration system developed by BE Engineering is a significant improvement to the standard method. We use it on R.V. Tridens with six Simrad ES echosounders, and in ideal conditions it is done within several hours. The available spheres with the micro precision filament holes, minimize the error of the target value.
