Improve dredging productivity and efficiency. Trimble Marine Construction systems provide accurate 3D visualisation to assist the operator with underwater construction tasks.
Trimble Marine Construction systems are flexible, high-performance positioning systems that meet the unique needs of marine construction on both simple and complex projects.
Trimble Marine Construction systems for clamshell dredging applications help dredge operators improve productivity and efficiency. The operator has a real-time overview of the crane, tool and barge in plan and profile views. Displays include the bucket position, bucket open/close status, bucket depth along with the surveyed and design depths.
Real-time views of the dredger in plan and profile view displays the clamshell, design depths and color-coded Digital Terrain Model (DTM). The DTM highlights the high and low spots relative to grade and is updated in real-time tracking the progress of the dredging work. The update follows the shape of the clamshell and is visible immediately in all the views. The system also shows the open/close status of the bucket. A built-in calibration procedure allows for easy calibration of the cable counters.
Up/down indicators show the operator the exact distance to the seafloor and design depth during movement. The software supports complex 3D designs.
Add eyes below the water with Teledyne Marine sonars for real-time data visualisation.
Multiple monitors with independent layouts can be tailored to the needs of the dredge operator. A color-coded plan view and 3D view highlights high and low spots. The surface Digital Terrain Model (DTM) is updated in real-time registering the progress of the dredging work showing depth, differential and production models all updated according to progress of the clamshell crane attachment.

It’s like having a camera underwater. I am able to get within 10-20 cm (4 to 8 inches) on the seafloor of our target depth. We can dig in one area, and then move across half a bucket and pick-up the spillage and cut at the same time.
Make better decisions, decrease costly mistakes, and increase efficiency in the office and on the jobsite. Powerful tools help you quickly and easily create accurate, integrated 3D constructible models for construction surveying and machine control.
