GeO-Drome
Geophysical Deepwater Research Observatory
Sound Ocean Systems, Inc., is the exclusive reseller of EDBOE (Experimental Design Bureau of Oceanological Engineering of the Russian Academy of Sciences) in the United States. EDBOE possesses extensive experience in the development, manufacture and supply of subsea research instrumentation. These sensors and systems are used around the world in hydrology, hydroacoustic, geophysics, geomorphology, geology, ecology and for the monitoring of coastal zones.
The GeO-DROME is a unique oceanographic, multi-disciplinary, geophysical ocean observation system for measuring bottom and near-bottom phenomena. The GeO-DROME system is perfect for geophysical and geochemical research of near-bottom stratum of the world oceans. This device is typically used to research both nature and man-made ecology disaster situations in seas and coastal zones. The investigation of such phenomena may include earthquake zones, tsunami zones, deep ocean exploration, continental shelf exploration and inland basin work.
Observations are based on autonomous bottom hydrophysical station sensors. The unit has features for receiving and transferring large arrays of information to computer centers. This data is transmitted via cable to shore or to store data onboard the unit.
