    KONGSBERG, Norway - Kongsberg Mesotech’s M3 Bathy System, an, entry-level survey system for shallow-water bathymetric applications, is now officially designated compliant with IHO S-44.

    Bathymetry data from the M3 was collected in depths ranging from 15 to 40 m (49 to 131 ft). The test targets were a series of standard concrete 1-m (3-ft) cubes laid along 20 m (66 ft) and 40 m (131 ft) contours. The results confirmed that the M3 Bathy is capable of achieving bathymetric survey data that meets two orders of IHO standards.
