Calib Designs offers calibration stands for a variety of ADCPs. Our LR-1 model is specifically designed for Teledyne's RD Instruments Long Ranger, ADCPs with great range capability, but notoriously top heavy, thus making manual calibration a physical challenge. Our stands provide a very stable platform when running the Hard and Soft iron calibrations in upward or downward profiles. And our WH-1 model is designed to calibrate upward and/or downward profiles for all models of the Teledyne RD Instruments Workhorse Sentinels, from the shallower (200 m) to the deepwater versions (6000 m).
All of our calibration stands provide a smooth rotation on a balanced platform which allows for a very smooth, slow and stable calibration, resulting in an improved overall standard deviation. Minimum overall error equates to more accurate data collection from your instruments.
And, the ease by which you can load, calibrate, and unload the instruments will save time and energy. For a better understanding of how these stands work, please visit our website and see how simple and easy the calibration
process can be for you.

LOG_aFlow® - The Only Way to get Real Flow Charts
LOG_aFlow® is an highly sophisticated ADCP Data Evaluation Software elaborated for complex hydrodynamic flow analysis. Based on Euler’s two-dimensional stream function-vorticity-formulation, LOG_aFlow® describes the only way to get real flow charts even in tidal affected regions. It quickly generates flow charts, which indicate velocity, vorticity (turbulence) and data quality on every point of time and location within the investigation area.
Due to the software’s clearly arranged structure in an easy to handle Windows giving vital support to the user the operation always succeeds in quality and time.
LOG_aFlow® facilitates manifold application, as there are:
- Flow charts in harbours, rivers and coastal zones, optimal in tidal waters
- Maneuvering assistance for ship safety
- Pilot- and accompanying surveying in hydraulic engineering
- Environmental monitoring
- Optimising the choice of location for fish farms in aquaculture industries
- Discharge calculation for every cross sectional area
LOG_aFlow® became standard in many harbours and institutions.

Horizon Marine, Inc., the pioneer in operational oceanography, has been providing ocean current monitoring and forecasting services to the offshore oil and gas industry since 1982. Eddy Watchtm programs in the Gulf of Mexico, Southern Gulf of Mexico, and offshore Trinidad and Brazil focus on strong oceanic features such as the Loop Current, the North Brazil Current, the Brazil Current and associated eddies and rings that routinely threaten offshore operations with 3.0+ knot currents. Such information is vital to planning, safety, and efficiency. The effects of strong ocean currents include damage to equipment and the inability to conduct certain operations, thus resulting in costly downtime.
With accurate forecasts of the location and migration of these currents, operators are able to safely conduct sensitive operations during low current windows. To more accurately define these work-windows, Horizon Marine has developed FAST Eddy - an automated, self-contained, rapid response, ocean current monitoring system equipped with dual-RDI ADCPs. Pole-mounted from any suitable supply or utility boat, a 150kHz ADCP measures the upper 150m of the water column while a 75kHz measures down to 550m as the vessel steams along between 8 and 10 knots. Quality controlled and graphically represented data are made available to the client in near real time, thus assisting project managers in making critical decisions based upon operation- and safety-specific current thresholds.

Webb Research Corporation is an established producer of buoyancy controlled platforms, more than 1,000 vehicles are today charting the currents and in some cases T-S profiles, in the world's major ocean basins.
Webb Research is proposing a shallow water tethered vehicle that may be attached to bottom mounted ADCP "moorings" the vehicle will periodically ascend to the surface profiling physical and or Biological variables versus pressure (using third party instrumentation). At the surface this vehicle will relay these data in addition to an optional subset of ADCP data by a telemetry method best suited to the location and message length.
The device is intended to profile from a maximum depth of 30 meters, and it is anticipated that that the device will profile daily for 6 months on a single charge of propellant.
Please contact Geoff Morrison with suggestions and or comments.
