Device for measuring water from a moving watercraft

The invention relates to a device for measuring bodies of water from a moving watercraft combined continuous measurement of both the water depth by means of echo sounding under a measuring point on the watercraft as well as the respective associated location coordinates along a measurement line swept over by the measuring point, preferably a straight line between the two banks of a watercourse.

In known devices of this type for the recording of transverse profiles of river courses, the measuring point is usually fixed amidships in front of the watercraft. This constructive solution has the disadvantage that the measuring point can not cover all areas of the watercourse, because daa watercraft avoid shallow bank zones because of its draft and must keep a safe distance from the bank at sharp bends due to strong currents.

It is not to improve the operational capability near the shore
