Introduction to EchoNIMBUS UAV MultiBeam Echosounder System (MBES)
September 23, 2026

Join us for a practical webinar exploring the EchoNIMBUS MBES System, a 240 kHz multibeam echosounder designed for drone-based bathymetric surveying. We’ll introduce the EchoNIMBUS system and its integration with the UgCS and SkyHub TTF ecosystem, covering the key flight parameters, operational considerations, applications, and data-processing workflow

We’ll introduce the EchoNIMBUS system and its integration with the UgCS and SkyHub TTF ecosystem, covering the key flight parameters, operational considerations, applications, and data-processing workflow.

A key part of the webinar will be a customer case study from ERCS International (UK), demonstrating how the system was set up and deployed, how it was used in the field, the data collected, and the resulting performance. We’ll also look at how drone-based MBES compares with equivalent USV-based results.

The webinar will cover:

  • UgCS Basics
    Introduction to mission planning and flight operations
  • SkyHub TTF Ecosystem
    Understanding the system architecture and integration
  • EchoNIMBUS MBES System
    Key features, specifications, and capabilities
  • Flying Parameters & Considerations
    Practical guidance for successful surveys
  • Applications
    Where drone-based multibeam bathymetry can be applied
  • Customer Case Study
    ERCS International (UK) – Setup, deployment, collected data, results, and performance
  • Data Processing
    From survey data collection to usable bathymetric outputs
  • Q&A
    Live discussion and questions with the presenters

Date & Time:

Oct 5, 2026 12:00 PM CEST

Whether you are new to drone-based bathymetry or looking to understand how MBES can be integrated into your existing survey workflow, this webinar will provide a practical overview of the technology, field operation, and real-world results.
