HYPACK® & HYSWEEP® Overview
HYPACK®
For collecting, processing and generating final products of
single beam, magnetometer, side scan and sub-bottom data.
HYSWEEP®
The module that allows you to collect and process multibeam,
multiple transducer and topographic lidar data in HYPACK
DREDGEPACK®
Monitor, economize and provide reports for trailing hopper, cutter
suction, excavator and bucket dredges. NOT FOR SURVEY.
MARINE SEARCH®
Designed for side scan surveys with a GPS and a side scan with a
fixed layback.
Projects
Contours with sorted multibeam files
Side scan mosaic layered over nautical chart
A dredging plan layered over a DXF harbor file.
Color-filled contours layered over imported GeoTIF.
Each survey is stored in a separate project folder. Each project consists of raw, edited, and sorted
data files, along with background imagery, your geodetic parameters and supporting files.
GEODETIC PARAMETERS

Used to configure how your project goes from WGS-84 to Local Datum
(if necessary) to X-Y on your projection. Also used to specify RTK
TIDE parameters, if used.

HYPACK supports BSB, ARCS (UKHO), DGN, DWG, DXF, EGW,
GML, MIF, JPG2000, PDF, PNG, SHP, SID, S-57, S-63, and VPF.
Web Maps via WMS
Download maps via the Internet from NASA (worldwide, lo-res), USGS (US-Only)
and Bing Maps (worldwide, hi-res, requires subscription). Enter your own or other
public web map servers (WMS).
S-57 ENCs (US Only)
Planned Lines
3D View of ADVANCED CHANNEL DESIGN SURFACE
Creating separate reporting zones for volumes in ACD
Examining complex templates in the LINE EDITOR
•Manual Entry or digitize your planned lines in the LINE EDITOR. Automatically
create planned lines with templates in CHANNEL DESIGN. Create 3-D
surfaces and drape lines in ADVANCED CHANNEL DESIGN.
HYPACK SURVEY
Used to provide navigation control and to log single beam,
magnetometer and other data.
Anchor Handling in SURVEY
Mark anchor deployment locations, deploy anchors (with or without floats), transfer
anchors to tugs, raise anchors and keep a history of all anchor movements.
HYSWEEP SURVEY
HYSWEEP SURVEY allows the collection of multibeam and topographic lidar data.
Survey data can be displayed in matrices as depth, number of samples and
standard deviation per cell.
Water Column Data
HYSWEEP SURVEY can now log water column (WC) data from Reson 7xxx, R2Sonic
and Kongsberg (2040) multibeams. WC is also integrated in MBMAX-64 during editing.
SIDE SCAN SURVEY
Side Scan collection and processing are standard features of HYPACK.
USVs (Unmanned Surface Vehicles)
HYPACK has tools for mission planning, data collection and data processing for ASVs.
UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles)
Single Beam Data Processing
Apply tide and sound velocity corrections, remove outliers, examine and correct
track line, view acoustic profile from network capable single beam echosounders.
Multibeam Processing
MBMAX-64 can address ALL of your available RAM. It easy-to-use manual editing
tools and powerful filters combine for the best Multibeam Editor on the planet!
Magnetometer Editing
Edit raw gamma values, subtract IGRF for anomalies, adjust with data
from shore-based magnetometers to create final anomalies.
Sounding Selection
Edited data. Maybe
soundings every 20cm
along the vessel’s track.
Sorted data. Protect the
minimums, maximums or
sample randomly.
Gridded Data. Use
MAPPER or the TIN
MODEL to output depths at
even increments.
SORT
CROSS SORT
SB SOUNDING
SELECTION
MAPPER
Single Beam Data:
Guarantees minimum
sounding at their correct
location.
Single Beam Data :
Packs soundings as
tightly as possible.
Single Beam Data:
Graphical selection of
Min/Max and/or Fixed
Spacing
Multibeam Data:
A ‘binning’ program that
saves one sounding per
cell.
POINT CLOUD
Used to review multibeam and topographic data. Data can be edited in
POINT CLOUD and sub-divided into blocks for easier editing.
3D TERRAIN VIEWER (3DTV)
Used to create a fly-through over a TIN MODEL and to capture BMPs and AVIs
as the camera flies through the area and for real time situational awareness.
CROSS SECTIONS AND VOLUMES
Compute Average End Area volumes by sections, or plot historical cross
sections against each other in CROSS SECTIONS AND VOLUMES (CSV).
EXPORT TO CAD
HYPACK’s EXPORT program writes HYPACK soundings and project files to DXF
and DGN. HYPLOT, the plotting program can send the plotting sheet out to DXF.
HYPLOT – Smooth Sheets
The Standard HYPLOT outputs a single plot per page. The new MultiPlot HYPLOT outputs multiple plots per page!
EXPORT TO GOOGLE EARTH
Right-click on a file to save it to KMZ. Double-click on the KMZ file to load your see
your data in Google Earth! E-mail the KMZ file to your client and let them pull it up.
TIN MODEL: Surface Modeling
TIN = Triangulated Irregular Network. It’s an exact surface model of your survey
data. In HYPACK’s TIN MODEL, you can combine your model with a GeoTIF
(overlay or insert).
TIN MODEL: Volume Computations
TIN MODEL can compute volumes from single and/or multibeam data. Compute
TIN vs CHN, TIN vs CHN, TIN vs LNW (Philadelphia) or TIN vs. historical
surface.
TIN MODEL: Contours
HYPACK’s TIN MODEL creates DXF contours with color fills and
labels.
3D Mesh: Modeling
Handles vertical surfaces and concavities. It’s a “Beta” version in 2016.
Slow and limited in the number of points it can currently handle.
SIDE SCAN: Targeting in HYSCAN
HYSCAN is the SIDE SCAN TARGETING AND MOSAICKING program. Users can
mark targets, measure them, save a graphic and combine all information in a Wordcompatible target book.
SIDE SCAN: Mosaicking in HYSCAN
Side-by-side comparisons of mosaics show HYSCAN is the equal
of dedicated side scan packages that sell for much more $$$.
Bottom Classification
HYPACK’s implementation of GEOCODER allows you to perform bottom
classification with Side Scan, Average Backscatter and Snippet data.
SUB BOTTOM Collection and Processing
Sub-bottom data collection and processing is a standard feature of
HYPACK.
DREDGEPACK®
Real time dredging software to show you where is the digging tool, how
deep is the design depth, and keep a history of the digging operation.
DREDGEPACK®
Cutter Suction Dredges
HopperDredges
Excavators
Bucket Dredges
DREDGEPACK is compatible with cutter suction, hopper, crane and excavator
operations. The Silent Inspector routines meet USACE reporting guidelines.

Note: You’ll need a HYPACK and HYSWEEP license in order to collect and process multibeam and/or topographic lidar data.
HYPACK offers you cost-effective alternatives to run multiple survey
boats or processing stations.
