C-Nav for Osiris Projects Vessel

Hydro International - 

C-Nav is to provide the GNSS positioning system for Osiris Projects' latest new-build survey vessel, the SV Bibby Tethra.

C-Nav has been chosen to provide the vessel's primary GNSS positioning system and to integrate it with a survey and navigation suite. The vessel will be fitted with a C-Nav 3050 RTK GNSS receiver and C-NaviGator II remote control and display unit.

The 3050 RTK has been carefully selected after a number of sea trials. The Bibby Tethra is three times larger than the company's existing flagship, the SV Chartwell, and will be one of the most advanced vessels of its kind operating in Europe. The latest vessel will establish a new benchmark for coastal marine survey work.

Not surprising that this receiver was chosen. When combining the 3050 with the OxTS Inertial+2 we found the positioning and velocity to be excellent. With the Inertial+2 the roll, pitch and heading were also fantastic. Our tests shows that it had great multipath rejection too, to remove those reflections from the sea. We have tested lots of receivers and we like this product a lot.
