COMPANY BACKGROUND
EdgeTech (formerly EG&G Marine Instruments) traces its history in underwater data acquisition and
processing back to 1966. EdgeTech has designed, developed, and manufactured products, instruments,
and systems—for the acquisition of underwater data, including marine, estuarine, and coastal
applications—for over 45 years.
The company has responded to the needs of the scientific, Naval, and offshore communities by providing
equipment—such as sub-bottom profilers, side scan sonar, acoustic releases, USBL positioning systems,
and bathymetric systems—that have become standards in the industry.
EdgeTech has also consistently anticipated and responded to future needs through an active research and
development program. Current efforts are focused on the application of cutting-edge CHIRP and acoustic
technology.
