Why The Z -Boat For
Hydrographic Survey?

Elite Survey provides a comprehensive range of solutions for geotechnical monitoring. Their offerings include:

  • Autonomous Monitoring: Systems that operate independently to track various geotechnical parameters.

  • Automatic Trigger Alert Communication: Features that enable real-time alerts compatible with various sensors.

  • Tilt Meters: Instruments for measuring the tilt or inclination of structures.

  • Vibrating Wire Piezometers: Devices used to measure pore water pressure in soil and rock.

  • In-Place Inclinometers: Tools for measuring the horizontal movement of soil or rock.

  • Weather Stations: Equipment for monitoring environmental conditions.

  • Compatibility with Third-Party Sensors: Systems that can integrate with a range of external geotechnical sensors.

These solutions are designed to enhance the accuracy and reliability of geotechnical data collection and monitoring.

More of

  • Safety

    operators stay high and dry thanks to remote controlled operation.

  • Suitability

    for environmentally sensitive areas like wetlands and dams.

  • Accessibility

    to all the locations other survey vessels can't get to without a boat ramp!

  • Sustainability

    zero emissions & a lightweight hull in the size of a computer desk.

Out tech

We invest in up-to-date tech so you don’t have to.

  • Same size as your computer desk.

  • GPS to 15mm accuracy & Echosounder on-board

  • Battery operated with a 4.5 hour run-time (max)

  • Survey speed of 3 knots

  • We needed a 85.3km canal surveyed & without Elite and their z-boat this project would not have been possible to deliver on-time. It was a pleasure working with Elite through all stages of the D&C. We look forward to the next project with the Elite team.

 FAQs

Questions deserve answers.
  • Hydrography is collected under rules which vary depending on the acceptance authority. Traditionally conducted by ships with a sounding line or echo sounding, surveys are increasingly conducted with the aid of aircraft and sophisticated electronic sensor systems in shallow waters.

  • If you cannot see or measure underwater, you’ll need us. We take the risk and hassle out of surveying that can really only be done effectively with our z-boat. Shallow waters, low clearance areas, ecological or asset sensitive water bodies, we have them all covered.

  • A battery powered, remote-controlled lightweight vessel. As big as a computer desk, it makes tight and hazardous areas accessible for surveying without the safety risks. It’s a breeze to use because it doesn’t require a boat ramp to launch from and we can pop it on the roof racks of our 4wd. We really can go ANYWHERE with this little boat.

  • Yep. We do that too. We have traditional surveying services to collect accurate MGA points which can be combined with the speed and detail of our reality capture services using our terrestrial laser scanner or Lidar Aerial Drone.

  • You’re talking to the right people. Our Z-boat is a zero fuel emissions, battery-powered and remote controlled vessel the size of a computer desk. It’s able to get to places a manned boat cannot, with minimal disturbance to flora & fauna, sediment and sensitive aquatic plants.

  • No worries! That’s why we look after being elite at it. Call us for a chat by clicking the ‘contact us now’ button at the bottom of the page.
