Manton Dam Survey

Client: Power and Water Corporation (PWC)

Rise was commissioned by PWC to do a bathymetric survey of the entire reservoir to model the reservoir bed to enable PWC to assess how surface water level changes will impact recreation activities when the Dam is returned to service.

Rise also used UAV drones to survey the reservoir banks to create a comprehensive Digital Terrain model of the entire Dam, including the boat ramp.

Rise also used underwater sonar and terrestrial lidar to create a 3D model of the Dam wall and intake tower that will be used to model future infrastructure upgrades and improvements.

The survey works were carried out during the tropical wet season and supported by Rise’s 5.4m rib.

Technology for the North, designed in the North

We are so proud to have our investment into the development of a tropical bathymetric USV (unmanned service vehicle) secure matched funding from Advanced Manufacturing Growth Centre Ltd. Current wastewater survey methods are often not fit-for-purpose for the waste water conditions in tropical Northern Australia - high debris loads and organic matter.
