Above and below water.
A major part of port infrastructure lies deep underwater—making it virtually invisible in day-to-day operations. Yet quay walls, sheet piling, and foundation structures constantly face heavy demands over decades of service: rising loads from larger vessels, corrosion, sediment shifts, and structural wear.

Structural inspections are frequently conducted using diving operations. These are often complex, time-limited, and typically provide only localized snapshots. Furthermore, poor underwater visibility makes accurate assessments even more challenging.

In practice, this means we often lack a complete picture of a structure's actual condition. Consequently, decisions regarding maintenance, operations, or investments have to be made based on limited data.

Our approach to structural data acquisition
Our approach to structural data acquisition
HydroMapper creates a seamless and robust data foundation for port infrastructure. By combining various surveying methods, we capture structures in their entirety—both above and below water. Even hard-to-reach or previously obstructed areas can be precisely documented.
Through this, HydroMapper's extensive, long-term experience in surveying complex infrastructure flows directly into the project's execution. We capture data in a way that goes beyond mere documentation, ensuring it is highly structured and ready for advanced downstream analysis.

Remaining Service Life Calculation
By accurately measuring and subsequently approximating the bending line, we were able to realistically assess the actual load on the quay wall. This prevented a premature closure and established the foundation for an economically viable continued operation strategy.
