Abstract

Provides information concerning the principle of operation, performance and selection criteria for echo sounders used in depth measurements for open channel flow (and related) measurements. The use of standard terminology is promoted. Information on the characteristics of sound in water is provided in an annex. It is identical with and has been reproduced from ISO 4366:1979.

Scope

This International Standard provides information concerning the principle of operation, performance and selection criteria for echo sounders used in depth measurements for open channel flow (and related) measurements. The use of standard terminology is promoted. Information on the characteristics of sound in water is provided in annex.
