CARIS HIPS and SIPS is a globally leading comprehensive data processing system that provides professional level data processing solutions for marine surveying, hydrological surveys, and marine scientific research with over 25 years of technological accumulation. The system supports over 40 industry standard data formats and is capable of processing multi beam, backscatter, side scan sonar, single beam, and LiDAR data simultaneously. It also integrates the latest 3D visualization technology.
As the core link of the "from detection to mapping" workflow, HIPS and SIPS have high scalability and can be seamlessly integrated into a wider range of geospatial workflows. It is built on the CARIS GIS platform and can efficiently manage and process massive acoustic and multidimensional datasets from different platforms and sensors, ensuring data security and adaptability to industry development.
The sonar noise classifier integrated with CARIS Mira AI can automatically identify the vast majority of sonar noise, reducing manual cleaning workload by up to 10 times and achieving an accuracy rate of up to 95%. This feature assists decision-making thr
With automation as the core design concept, an automated workflow is constructed graphically through a process designer to ensure consistency and efficiency in data processing. Simultaneously providing Python API to facilitate the integration of the syste
The SIPS backscatter engine, combined with leading tools such as multi-mode beam pattern correction and region based AVG correction, provides a simple and autonomous process to generate defect free, high-quality backscatter products and mosaics.
Support synchronous processing of multi beam, single beam, side scan sonar, LiDAR, synthetic aperture sonar, and interferometric sonar data within the same platform, achieving true one-stop data processing.
By combining HIPS files, SQLite databases, and CSAR spatial archive file formats, TB level grid data, variable resolution data, and point cloud data can be conveniently stored and managed to meet the processing needs of large-scale projects.
Support vertical adjustment using observation/model data (including tide level network) and GPS vertical elevation+separation model. Provide multiple grid generation methods, including CUBE algorithm, beam angle, uncertainty, and shallow point true positi
Process multi beam data and generate electronic navigation charts that comply with international standards.
Provide accurate water depth and seabed feature data for offshore wind power, subsea pipeline, and cable routing surveys.
Used for underwater geomorphology research, habitat mapping, and analysis of marine physical parameters.
Conduct regular depth measurements and sediment analysis of ports and waterways to ensure navigation safety.
Utilizing side scan sonar and backscatter data for underwater target detection and classification.
