WHAT IS HYDROGRAPHY?

I. INTRODUCTION TO HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY

Hydrography
That branch of applied science which deals with the measurement and description of the physical features of the navigable portion of the EARTHs surface and adjoining coastal areas, with special reference to their use for the purpose of NAVIGATION.
(IHO Pub. S-32)

International Hydrographic

I. INTRODUCTION TO HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY

Organization

IHO

An international body representing the hydrographic community. An intergovernmental consultative and technical organization established in 1921 to support safety of navigation and the protection of the marine environment. It presently has 80 member countries and 84 hydrographic offices.

I. INTRODUCTION TO HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY

IHO
The goals of the IHO include the following: Coordination of the activities of national hydrographic offices Uniformity in nautical charts and documents Adoption of reliable and efficient methods of carrying out hydrographic surveys Development of the science and techniques in the field of Hydrography

Hydrography AS A MULTI-

DISCIPLINARY SCIENCE

I. INTRODUCTION TO HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY

Hydrographic Surveys
- deals with the configuration of the bottom and adjacent land areas of oceans, lakes, rivers, harbours, and other water forms on Earth. - In strict sense, it is defined merely as the surveying of a water area;

- it may include a wide variety of other objectives such as measurements of tides, current, gravity, earth magnetism, and determination of the physical and chemical properties of water.

I. INTRODUCTION TO HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY

Hydrographic Surveys
The principal objective of most hydrographic surveys is to obtain basic data for the compilation of nautical charts with emphasis on the features that may affect safe navigation. Other objectives include acquiring the information necessary for related marine navigational products and for coastal zone management, engineering, and science.

Hydrography Department in the past

1900 the US Coast and Geodetic Survey created a Manila Field Station for the conduct of geodetic, hydrographic and topographic surveys in the country. 1939 the Bureau of Coast and Geodetic Survey (BCGS) of the Philippines was organized together with the Department of National Defense thru EO No. 230 1987 BCGS was merged with three other agencies forming NAMRIA

I. INTRODUCTION TO HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY

Hydrographic Surveys in the Philippines

Hydrography Department at present

is the sole IHO recognized hydrographic office of the country mandated to conduct hydrographic survey of the Philippine waters.
It is responsible in the delimitation of maritime boundaries

of the country, charting of national maritime jurisdictions for safety of navigation, and management of maritime boundaries.
Its current projects include hydrographic survey of ports and

harbors, sea lanes, exclusive economic zone, and potential extended continental shelf.

1. SURVEY PLANNING
Survey planning covers a wide range of activities from the development of an idea for a survey within

the Hydrographic Office and its subsequent issue as Project Instructions / Hydrographic Instructions (HIs), to the detailed planning and organization of a surveying ship to fulfill a practical task.
Exact area of the survey Type of survey and scale to meet standards of chart to be

produced Platforms available Support work required (geodetics and tides)

a. SOUNDING METHODS
BASIC PRINCIPLE OF ECHOSOUNDING
Echosounding works on the basic principle that a sound produce near the surface of water will travel to the bottom in the form of sound wave and be reflected back to the sonar in the form of echo. The transducer will record the time of return of echo and measure the time interval . Using the measured time interval and sound velocity in water column the transducer will calculate and register the depth of water.

OTHER MODERN HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY METHOD

Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR)


uses lasers instead of sound to find distance
used extensively for topographic mapping on land. When used in hydrographic surveys, two different color lasers are used: green and red. The red laser reflects off of the water surface, while the green laser penetrates water and reflects off of the seafloor.

e. OTHER MODERN HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY METHOD


Satellite Altimetry
Altimeters aboard satellites can be used for general bathymetric mapping in deep water Because of variation in the strength of gravity, the water's surface mounds over features like seamounts and forms a trough over deep-sea trenches.
