Anyone doing blue boat lifting in Hypack?
Is it possible?
Hi @nicoalmonacid95 -
Welcome to the forums!
Can you clarify what you mean by “lifting” ?
I’m aware of at least one user using sonars and the BlueBoat via Hypack,… but it definiteliy takes a lot of setup!
Sorry, I meant bathymetry.
Regarding Hypack, what sonar do you need to make it work?
What IP address is needed to communicate with the sonar?
That depends on the sonar! You can find things like the IP address in the integration guides for a particular sonar on its product page- just expand the section below technical details.
@ljlukis may have some information on using Cerulean Sonars with hypack… Blue Robotics has not used that software first hand!
We haven’t used Hypack either, but with the Surveyor 240 MBES (commonly used with the Blue Boat) and the Cerulean SonarView application you can export CSV or GSF point data. Most hydrographic s/w packages can import these.
Hydromagic and BeamworX have done the best integrations so far to support Surveyor directly.

We currently use Hydromagic to collect and process the data from a Blueboat with the Surveyor MBES and it easily converts to Hypack matrix files. We then use the Hypack files in our Dredgepack system in our excavators for dredging/material placement. It’s been a cost effective solution to getting quality data quickly on our jobsites.
