Discover Bathymetric
EdgeTech’s Discover Bathymetric Software provides a way to control, store, and display Bathymetric and
Dual-Frequency Side Scan Sonar data. Data is presented in a color waterfall display and stored in the binary
EdgeTech JSF file format on the hard disk of the Topside Processor. The JSF file format has been in use for
10+ years and has new public extensions to support the additional Bathymetry data messages. Refer to
the
for a full description of its features and
functions.

A.2.1
HYPACK
The processed bathymetry and side-scan data are sent in real-time to the HYPACK®/HYSWEEP® survey
applications. These applications display and record the bathymetric data in HYPACK’s HSX format. These
HSX files can then be used offline in the MBMax, Side Scan Mosaic, and other proprietary packages that
support these formats to edit, clean, and mosaic the collected data.

acquisition of sonar data. The latest version of SonarWiz, called SonarWiz 5, now offers a bathymetry
module to acquire and post-process the real-time 6205s Swath Bathymetry and Dual Frequency Side Scan
