An upward-looking sonar device, mounted above the ocean floor to accurately measure ice draft.

When you need to study the ice canopy

In order to estimate ice forces, production rates, and mass balances, accurate measurements of ice thickness are essential. The Ice Profiling Sonar (IPS)™ makes these measurements and is ideal for the design of offshore and coastal structures, oceanographic research and climate studies.
