23. Boat Reference Point (RP)
Locate your Boat’s Center of Gravity (CG).
This will be critical to performing very accurate and repeatable surveys.
Understand that your boat’s CG may be dynamic and need to be monitored.

24. HYPACK® 2009 Training Seminar
Installation
Mount your Motion Sensor (MRU or IMU) at the CG or as close as possible.
Multibeam Mounting (In order of preference)
Hull Mount at boat’s CG.
Moon Pool at boat’s CG
Pole Mount; Thru Hull, Over-the-Bow
Mount or Over-the-Side Mount.
Positioning System Place your GPS antennae as high as possible and directly above the Boat’s CG or as close as possible. Alternate Positioning Systems will require the most visible “line of sight” as possible also (ie. Robotic Total Station)
Heading Device Location not as critical, in the case of a Gyro-Compass, but a dual antennae DGPS or RTK GPS system will require accurate measurements and placement, in order to output the most accurate data possible.

25. NOTE: This is usually done with a Land Surveyor’s Total Station.
Install your equipment and very accurately Locate each piece with respect to the Boat’s RP/CG.

Offsets
Adjusting the data for:
Boat Origin (Reference Point): Vessel Center of Gravity XY. Static waterline Z.
Device Location: Offsets in X, Y and Z measured from boat origin.
Device Rotation: Pitch, Roll and Yaw orientation of directional devices such as multibeam sonar.
Device Latency: Time delay = data arrival time – data valid time.
Tracking Point: XY location of the sonar head. For survey left/right indicator.

Navigation Device
The HYPACK® Navigation device is required and is installed by default. Not good if you delete it.
Connect:
Shared memory transfer is automatic and requires no configuration.
Offsets:
Enter GPS antenna offsets measured from boat origin.
Vertical offset is positive downward (i.e. negative above waterline).
Enter GPS latency if any.
(Offsets DO NOT carry thru Shared Memory)
