i3XO EcoMapper AUV
Generate high-resolution
maps of water quality,
currents and bathymetry.
A unique AUV designed specifically for mapping
water quality, water currents, and bathymetry.
Navigate challenging natural environments
with a monitoring platform that will
generate the highest-resolution data at
a low cost and low risk to your personnel.

EXO sensors*:{
* EXO1 with CTD: three additional sensors can be installed simultaneously.
Using VectorMap software,
create a point-and-click
mission on a geo-referenced
map.Start EcoMapper with key fob. Using Windows™
Remote Desktop, load
mission onto EcoMapper’s UVC software.
Place vehicle in water and
start mission.
When EcoMapper is on the surface and within Wi-Fi range, view data and
monitor progress, or take
manual control over vehicle.
Retrieve EcoMapper at
planned PARK location.
Download data via Wi-Fi link;
transfer data to preferred
graphing software (software
not included).

5 Steps to an
EcoMapper
Mission Baseline Monitoring
• Detailed data on horizontal and vertical planes
• Reduce number of personnel on the water
• Reduce costs to run monitoring program
• Simultaneous bathymetric, water quality and
current mapping, sonar imaging
Source Water Mapping
• Improve knowledge of raw water quality
• Early warning of algal blooms and low
DO events
• Map sediment level and reservoir volume
• Reduce water treatment operating costs
Coastal & Ocean Research
• Surf-zone turbulence
• Benthic boundary layer studies
• Coral reef ecology
• Tidal inlet studies
• Fisheries research
• Physical-biological interaction
Bottom Mapping
• Depth sensor and acoustic sounder standard
• Side-scan sonar optional
• Requires < 1 m water depth
Point Source and Non-point Source Mapping
• Generate high-resolution map of plume
• Track movement of point source
• Map non-point source impacts to environment
• Monitor impacts by industry or development
