ECHOSOUNDER

An echo sounder is a marine sonar instrument that calculates water depth and maps the seafloor by transmitting sound pulses (pings) downward and measuring the time it takes for the echo to return. It is essential for navigation, shallow water safety, surveying, and fish detection by analyzing underwater topography.
