Surveys of water bodies - We take care of all the planning

For more than 30 years, GEO-METRIK has been surveying just about everything that flows through Germany. the Spree, the Elbe and the Isar, not forgetting dams, quarry ponds, gravel pits and structures such as weirs, sluices or bridges.

Surveys of water bodies with their data on the shape and depth of the water body serve here as a basis for a wide range of purposes. These range from covering pipelines and as-built documentation to the creation of digital terrain models, the implementation of hydronumerical modelling/simulations, right up to the database for the creation of flood hazard maps.

We can always rely here on state-of-the-art equipment and systems such as a dual frequency echo sounder, wherever the survey is being carried out. The measurement data collected is then processed in AutoCAD, GEOgraf, CARD/1 and MicroStation, which provide the data in a wide variety of formats.

Our know-how is highly valued by many different customers such as flood protection authorities, waterway authorities, pipeline operators, engineering offices and construction companies.
